Browser

The Commando uses the stock Android browser. The features of the browser haven't changed in what feels like an eternity, but it's a solid browser.

Browsing speeds on Verizon's 3G network range from average to poor. As mentioned above, the Commando had trouble with Verizon's network. Its signal issues likely played a role here in the sub-standard browsing performance.

This made the mobile hotspot feature all but unusable. In tests, I was never able to get more than one Wi-Fi device to find and use the Commando's data connection, and it was tenuous at best.

Customize

The Commando is as customizable as any other Android device. Casio and Verizon have, however, gone to obvious pains to customize the Commando for you with its specialized software and features.
