So which browser for android uses the least amount of battery?

It's varied. Some users swear by Opera.

Samsung's own browser uses less memory and resources than chrome on Samsung devices.

I was thinking about the 5x, wait till its a little cheaper. I have a nexus 7 and i enjoy stock android, I do like touchwiz, but its unacceptable how many processes & all the bloatware thats on the phone

5x should be below $200 (16gb) by end of the year, when 6p is below $350, I am not a fortune teller though.

1. Facebook app (and I disabled just anout everything I can) is well know to drain battery

So i just use the web browser for Facebook.

Same. And what's awesome about doing that is Chrome allows push notifications for websites and Facebook uses them, so I still get my Facebook notifications through Chrome. Facebook sucks for forcing mobile users to use their Messenger app, but you can easily get around that by requesting the desktop site in Chrome's settings. It even keeps you on the mobile Facebook site. It just bypasses the Messenger app requirement.
