IronFox and Fennec. Both are hardened Firefox.

I still use ironfox because of uBlock and dark reader. Cromite is also good.
I mean firefox is not really usable on android, at least for me. While Brave has a bad reputation, there isn’t any better than Brave, at least for me.
Firefox on Android requires a LOT of RAM because afaik it is the only modern mobile browser that truly implements its own web engine, rather than piggybacking on Android System WebView.
It ran like crap on my low end Galaxy but I’ve had no issue with it since switching to a Pixel 8. If you’re looking for speed over features while still being decently private, Firefox Focus is a nice simple choice, though it lacks most features of a modern browser.
If you’re looking exclusively for privacy-hardening though, nothing can really beat IronFox except maybe Vanadium (but that’s GrapheneOS exclusive), and IronFox is the only one with extensive support for browser extensions.
