Today, the first beta version of Maxthon 5 was officially launched, nicknamed MX5. This release shows Maxthon's commitment to following through with its evolution from a classic browser to a full personal assistant for all your online activities.
The change started with version 4, also called the Maxthon Cloud Browser, when it gained the ability to sync data in the cloud, a cloud-based file sharing systems, and a personal assistant for saving and syncing notes in the cloud.
MX5 follows on this path, and Maxthon International, the Chinese company behind this browser, is sticking to its plan of cramming as many features as possible inside its browser at a time when browsers like Firefox are striving to cut down all unnecessary features.
This is not necessarily a bad path since Vivaldi is doing the same thing, and many users seem to like its approach of crowding the browser with all sorts of features and controls.
