Firefox on Android is great IMO, fast, not power hungry and the extensions/features are awesome. I love not being bothered by ads, even on YouTube, and having videos play in the background.

Firefox for Android guzzles power like crazy, even slightly more than Chrome

You probably come out ahead if you load it up with a real adblocker though

Being able to browse with uBlock and Privacy Badger is a game changer for me. I basically don't use my mobile browser at all on iOS, and I don't use any social media or news apps either, so you can guess how useful the device is.. haha

Cromite with its native adblock and darkmode is, for me, the bee's knees.

I am on an older Android phone though. If it ain't broke...

Bromite's ad-blocking is very basic, the worst of the bunch. But it's a decent choice nonetheless.
