Want a phone that can browse the Web faster than any other phone? Instead of trying to decide with carrier to use, you should be looking at the hardware instead. According to a new test, Android 2.3’s built-in browser is 52% faster than Safari on the iPhone 4 with iOS 4.3, even when runnin gon the same 3G network.

The test, which consisted of loading 45,000 individual sites on the same phone, found that 84% of Fortune’s 1,000 top websites loaded faster on Android.

The iPhone did respond well when it loaded a site that was specially optimized for mobile devices. Those sites loaded much faster than other sites. However, all sites, on the whole, loaded faster on Android.
