Browsers

Default browsers

SpeedCurve provides the following browsers to test with:

These profiles don't reference specific emulated hardware, e.g. "iPhone 15" or a particular browser like "Chrome" or "Firefox". They are designed to be a great place to start your web performance testing and provide long-lived browser profiles with names that don't age. We will periodically update these profiles as web performance trends change.

Browser version

We update our browser versions during a scheduled test agent update approximately every 4-6 months. You can see the browser version that was used to run a test at the top of each test result page :

Bandwidth

The connection for our tests is throttled to emulate the average bandwidth of users. When adding a Custom Browser you can adjust the connection speed to emulate slower mobile or faster fiber connections.

Emulated devices

🚧

Deprecated

These old emulated device test profiles have been deprecated and will not be included when adding new teams. If you need to recreate these old browsers you can do so by adding a Custom Browser and referencing the settings below.
