Google releases Chrome Beta for Android, lets you sample upcoming features in advance

The Google Chrome browser for Android started life as a beta download from the Play Store, but was shortly promoted to the stable status. However, unlike with the desktop version, there was no separate beta channel that you could download later if you wanted to be on the bleeding edge of the browser’s development.
That is, until now. Google has released the new Chrome Beta for Android, which, just like its desktop counterpart, would let you sample all the upcoming features and improvements before they hit the stable version.
Of course, being a beta version means you are likely to run into some bugs and stability issues but if you’re fine with all of that then you can hit the download link below.
