Two apps, which an advocate for what is a web browser very similar to Link Bubble for loading web links in the background, and the other for what would be a browser that has as its greatest quality its light weight and simplicity. This simplicity allows us to really use a web browser focusing on what is important, apart from showing that there is still room to evolve in this category, even if we have Chrome or Firefox as the ones that set the pace at the moment for Android.
Today we have another browser that it will surely attract the attention of certain users because it is open source, blocks advertising, designed with Material Design and that weighs only one mega. These qualities are the cover letter of Ultimate Browser Project, a browser that is in a deep phase of development, but which we have the possibility of accessing its APK from the popular XDA forums.

The first thing that surprises is the location of the navigation bar at the bottom, although it can be changed from settings. From there we swipe up to access the settings and the management of open tabs. We type a url in the bar and it quickly launches the website to add it to the home and have quick links to access the most common sites.
The icon with three vertical dots takes us to the options menu to add links to home, search on page, take a screenshot, share, and the last one to close the application. From the settings we can change the search engine, notification priorities, Omnibox management, volume control, adblock and a few other modifications to properly customize the browser.
