Brave Origin review: A streamlined Chromium browser focused on security without the extras
By
Jack Wallen
Summary
Brave has released a new stripped-down version of its browser called Brave Origin, which removes features like the rewards program, crypto wallet, and VPN to focus purely on security and privacy. The reviewer finds this streamlined approach appealing, as it retains Brave's core security features (Shields, tracker blocking, HTTPS everywhere, Tor private browsing) while eliminating the clutter that can make the full Brave browser overwhelming. The article positions Brave Origin as the top Chromium-based browser choice for users who want robust security without extra features.
