"Over-hyped, but still a decent browser overall."
Pros: Takes a different direction for a browser, with some small nifty little features. Interface has lot's of eye-candy. Application-Shortcut's is kinda nifty.
Cons: Chrome copies many features from Safari and Firefox, but doesn't live up to their good name. Faster than Internet Explorer, but slow compared to other browsers. No real reason to switch to Chrome, nothing is very compelling. Interface is strange.
Summary: Google's splash into the browser market hasn't gone unnoticed. Although Chrome is Over-hyped, it's still a decent browser overall. Unfortunately, Chrome relies on eye-candy and some small, insignificant features to draw you in. None of the features a... read more

Version: Google Chrome 0.2.149.30
Pros: Simplistic interface. I CAN't THINK OF ANYTHING ELSE!
Cons: It is NOT the fastest browser around and it is pure hype for anyone to say it is. Opera 9.60, Safari, K-Meleon, and Firefox 3(especially with Firetune) are "blazingly" FASTER and in a race would leave this overrated piece of junk in the dust!
Summary: I am using Opera 9.60 which is beta as well. I got to CNET "blazingly" faster than when I TRIED with this piece of junk browser. Quickest browser available?! NOOT! Lightning speed?! Double NOOOOOOT! A waste of download time, RAM, and disk space.

"Nice try but where are the cool features?"
Pros: It seems fast

"Not bad but definitely overrated"
Pros: Not bad, a simple browser- I think some more features could do, especially the google search engine bar
Cons: i think its a bit overrated- When it comes to competition with Mozilla, Chrome falls down in both interface & features. Howver, this is only beta version, so we should not expect anything at the moment :P
