I think brave provide a slightly better experience overall, and privacy is a bit stronger too. Cromite might be better in some areas but DDG has better tracking protection against analytics from companies such as Adobe, Faceboo, Google, etc... by default.
DDG mobile browser had a contreverasy with allowing Microsoft tracking (DDG search engine is using MS Bing's back-end) but in other hands brave is also quite contreversial with affiliate link injections, optionnal "private ads" with Web3 advertisement. Cromite seems cleaner but is a community run project and there is no company backing it.
Honestly I haven't used it in years but it's definitely not the worst option you can choose on Android.
Chromite passed the EFF test for trackers. I had a unique fingerprint, though. Not surprising. It's really hard not to.
