HUAWEI MatePad 12 X (2026) Review
Been using BitTornado as a client for some time now and for a while, I also tried the built-in torrent downloader of the Opera browser. BitTornado looks okay but I was wondering if there are any other clients worth looking into out there.
I was checking Wikipedia and the list of clients there also indicated the usage share:
Xunlei: 29.3%
µTorrent: 25.8%
Vuze: 24.0%
BitComet: 4.3%
Transmission: 3.3%
BitSpirit: 2.0%
Haven’t heard of Xunlei before but it turns out it’s the most commonly used bittorent client in China, thus the huge popularity in terms of usage share. Outside of China, µTorrent and Vuze seems to be the more popular ones.
What do you guys use and which ones the most efficient client?
Apple, Asus, Cherry Mobile, Huawei, LG, Nokia, Oppo, Samsung, Sony, Vivo, Xiaomi, Lenovo, Infinix Mobile, Pocophone, Honor, iPhone, OnePlus, Tecno, Realme, HTC, Gionee, Kata, IQ00, Redmi, Razer, CloudFone, Motorola, Panasonic, TCL, Wiko

µTorrent – simplistic interface – minimalist – does the job :)

µTorrent is small at around 200+ kb, and tests show that it’s faster than Vuze. Yung Xunlei ata walang English version eh.

@Sir Abe,
I currently use Xunlei, aka “Thunder”. It is a Chinese download manager with Bittorrent support. I use it mainly because my ISP does not work well with uTorrent, I can’t max out my bandwidth, or any other client.
I was forced to use Xunlei now, but from my previous ISP, I swear by uTorrrent. It is simple, powerful and lightweight, it does not even hog system resources, even with multiple downloads and uploads at the same time. Bandwidth management is also very easy. Others I have tried were BitComet and the official Bittorrent client. The former was too slow and such a resource hog, and the latter I found too bland and does not have the features I need.

Xunlei user here. It has english version called Thunder. I used to prefer uTorrent but when version 2 came out, download speed is sometimes unstable. Probably because of the new protocol and bandwidth management. With Thunder, I always reach my maximum download speed ASAP.

I’m running on Linux Mint, and so far the client I like best is Deluge. It’s a really sweet “set and forget” kind of client. :)

that makes two of us.
Running Linux Mint 8 XFCE and prior to that(Linux Mint8 Helena with Gnome) was using KTorrent due to it’s scheduling functions (despite requiring KDE libraries) and now using Deluge

ubuntu has its own default torrent downloader… mas mabilis ang speed ng download so whenever i download a file/movie (whatever)… i use the one in ubuntu then saka ko na lang itransfer

µTorrent for me. Simple UI, allows me to limit download/upload speeds especially when you are sharing internet connection with others, and it does the job. =)

used Vuze on a mac, but it is a hog in resources. Switched to Miro, love the subscription to rss, auto download. Seems faster too.
