Quite a weird comparison. Chrome no longer uses WebKit, and Safari does. So those WebKit Android users must be using that crappy generic default browser that some phones have preinstalled.

I use the Firefox browser on Android. The Gecko engine is brilliant, and it can sync with the Firefox on my PC. I've used Chrome for most of my time on Android, and I reckon Firefox does a better job.
