Android is increasingly popular for tablets and Smartphones.

Flexibility and adaptability of the open-source Android architecture means that both smartphones and tablets can access the Web in a lot of ways.

Of course a web browser is the primary software component which is needed to surf on web from your device, be it a desktop computer or a smartphone. 

But tablets, by nature of their hybrid hardware and touchscreens, work best when browser developers create apps that capitalize on their aptitude and strengths.
