I use and love DuckDuckGo Android app! The browser part suits my workflow very well. The pinned favorites, the tabs not accumulating forever like in Chrome, it's just great all around!

But it's not as privacy-friendly as you'd think. For example all favorites and bookmarks favicons are routed through their server. Which would be nice as an option, but you can't opt out. They pinky-swear they don't log it, though.
