By on June 27, 2012 at 3:16pm in Mobile News


Not that all the previous Google news wasn’t enough – Nexus 7, Nexus Q, Jelly Bean – they’ve gone forth and shed the beta stamp from Chrome for Android. Everyone can officially download it now from Google Play, well only those with OS 4.0 and above. The version number is 18.0.1025123 and brings you similar features you would expect from the desktop browser.

Download it here from Google Play

  6. Not just Chrome; Google issued massive updates on their apps just a moment ago.

    Google Play Movies, Play Books, Maps, Earth, Street View, Youtube, Plus… all get updated on my phone.

    • You’re still thinking like it is 2010. Flash is dying and on its way out. HTML5 is the future.

  10. I’ll be picking up my S3 later this afternoon, at which point I will immediately install the new firefox (which supports flash) and compare it with the stock browser.

  13. Still no “Request Desktop Site” option like in the stock ICS browser? I also wonder if they’ve fixed the page rendering issues with some forums I’m on (some text is very large, other text is small).

  14. This is exactly why I am thinking of going back to my I-phone. My 2 year old I-phone 3gs has ios 5.1 on it, while it does not have all of the functionality of the I-phone 4s, it is running the latest software. Who can run out every three months and get another phone just to get the latest software?

  17. I still use Flash. I’m not going to just stop using Flash. I know it’s a legacy system, but it is still around and will still be around for some time.

    As for everything else, I am liking Chrome so far. I’m going to give it a week to see how it compares with the stock browser.
