Maxthon Releases MxNitro Beta, the Fastest PC Browser in the World
MxNitro Browser Offers Quickest Startup Times and Incomparable Page Loading Speeds for Windows PC
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 15, 2014 /PRNewswire/ — Maxthon, a global software company that develops state-of-the-art web browsers, today released the beta of Maxthon Nitro, the fastest Windows web PC browser currently available. MxNitro starts 3X faster and fetches and loads web pages considerably quicker than any other existing Windows PC browser. This is the newest addition to the company’s family of high-performance web browsers and is targeted at users who want a stripped-down, high performance browser with a minimalist design, a light memory and CPU footprint.
“Our focus groups and longitudinal surveys detail a growing segment of users who want speed above all else. 80% of users say that speed is their #1 decision-making criteria and that they are willing to forego extensive features and add-ons to get more of it,” said Jeff Chen, CEO of Maxthon. “This product is dedicated solely to that important and growing consumer niche.”
Under development since March 2014, Nitro’s streamlined and quick performance is achieved in part by drastically reducing its UI/UX load, adding new, patent-pending pre-connection and pre-fetching technology and by stripping out features that hog resources or cause delays in start-up times and page rendering.
In keeping with Maxthon’s long-standing tradition of community-collaborative development, much of the user-visible product direction of MxNitro has come from the active participation of a beta community of close to 20,000 users. Highlights of the new product include:
- – Installs and starts 3x faster than the fastest Windows PC browser — Chrome v.37
- – Loads web pages 30% faster than Chrome v.37
- – Noticeably speeds up web browsing on any Windows PC made before 2014
- – Has a clutter-free, intuitive look and feel designed expressly to make new users feel comfortable on first use
“Our flagship product — Mx4, the Maxthon Cloud Browser — is feature-rich and already Formula-1 fast,” said Karl Mattson, VP of Maxthon’s International Division. “Nitro, aptly named, boosts that speed to a whole new level for an underserved market niche: speed minimalists. And this is only the beta.”

[TheNextWeb] Maxthon launches MxNitro for Windows, claims ‘the fastest PC browser’ loads pages 30% faster than Chrome
i love this brower but when we gonna have the adblock plus plugin/extention pls????
I have tested it against Chrome 37 in Numion YourSpeed test and Chrome is slightly faster.
this maxthon you just talk about sound interesting, i will take a look
Seems the right click on back arrow doesn’t work.
Also, can’t find a settings button.
Would like to personalize the “New page” tab.
Also: when you open a link in a new window (ctrl+left click), the browser takes you in the new page, but it should be the other way: stay on what you’re reading, opening the new tab.
Thanks
Andrea
That browser is not in beta, but in alpha. Even the installer sais so:
mxnitro1.0.0.500-alpha-ce3c8d4f4e98d6acf366529d9838a9fc.exe
loading Yahoo Mail takes as long as with Opera. Not so good.
Wow, this browser actually IS faster than chrome, but there is a one missig thing – AdBlock
Love it. I use it for browsing for most of my online research etc. I love the minimalism. I dont need all unnecessary addons/extensions bar one….adblock. Please have some form of adblocking.
I really like how simple and minimized it is, being able to launch in a second. Although, it eventually started lagging and crashed a couple of times when under load while I was saving some images. Other than that, It’s probably the best lightweight browser out there. Keep working on it !

What the heck is happening to your browser when i first try it its fast but then after a few days it became slow and slow. -_-
I love this brower too, but when we gonna have the adblock plugin / extention ? 🙂
it’s good browser
but why there is no adblock?
This works exactly like Adblock:

I love this browser because of it’s low memory footprint. Chrome easily takes over 1GB when 10+ tabs are open. MxNitro barely takes 300MB.
I have never try it before, but am gonna give it try now
That’s a THOROUGH LIE!
The Browser is VERY HIGH on CPU usage, and IS NOT VERY FAST!
Only one window open consumes 11% of my CPU, and Opera with 3 open windows takes only 2,62% and is faster, though there are problems with it also.
Hello there,
Thank you for your attention to Maxthon. Actually, this problem has been improved in our latest version, so I think you are using an old version, we recommend you upgrade the latest version. And if the issue still occurs, let us know. We well check it as soon as possible.
Thanks for your support!
I love the minimalization, fludity and speed. Increase the settings options, I can’t see the setting options. It’s really good for a beta/alpha version. Keep working to make it better.
How do you delete temp files and history?
Me dull. You smart. That’s just what I neddee.

It is fast and nice. Hope to see more features in the future.
The best in speed, durability, comfort and lowest space occupation on my PC.
+ what I was looking for: slim and functional
– add favorites import function
– allow tiles to be personalized
– adblock reduces speed but should be enabled with choice of usage left to user
Loved the browser very much due to it’sfaster webpage load and lightweight display. The problem is that there are absolutely nothing to personalize. And also can’t change the hompage, new tab page and many other settings because there is no setting menu, option or icon. Please add the settings otherwise. The browser seems boring.
Funciona muy rapido, toda una sorpresa hasta ahora.
Thank God! Sonoeme with brains speaks!

Hi, Kind Support!
How do we know went to update the date to the newest version?
Many thanks,
Michael
Browser is extremely fast but memory footprint is huge. 100+ MB for a simple DOM light webpage.
Also, critical shortcuts (ctrl+tab, ctrl+shft+tab, alt+d) are not working and no settings menu.
When I close a tab it’s going for the previous instead of the next one.
I like it. But, the mouse back button doesn’t work.
This browser supports Gestures for moving across tabs..
Love.. it please have adblock supported in one or the form.
am just trying it for the first time
it’s perfect, only thing it needs is Adblocker. I know it reduces speed but the user should have the option to turn it on/off, it’s an important feature for a large amount of users.
How do I play Roblox on MX Nitro? We also need java plugin!!!
It would be intterseing to know what percentage of grown children (without kids of their own) still spend Christmas Eve night with their parents waiting on Santa Claus

Will this browser work with any internet settings? I am always travelling and uses vpn, I have Astrill by the way. Do you think this browser is compatible with my VPN provider? Thanks
Hi Forest, our browser supports that. If you are using VPN, and you can choose “Use IE proxy” and set your system proxy, or you can “Use custom proxy setting” in Maxthon browser. Proxy settings could be made from Settings!
Thanks for that info Maxthon. I am using Astrill vpn and I will try to set it up on that. Hope it works (cross fingers).
i normally use VPN I hope it work very well.
Hi I have astrillvpn and it works great so far for browsing and downloading but not for gaming cause it gives me a higher ping when connected to VPN.
magnificent issues altogether, you just gained a new reader. What may you recommend in regards to your post that you simply made some days in the past? Any positive?
am going to try this browser, I hope it works well
the first time that I use maxthon, i quite Mozilla, very good browser
