Good breakdown, and picking one browser first really is the key step. For most Android users I would start with the easiest option, then test only the one or two extensions you actually use every day. Before installing anything, check what permissions each extension asks for and whether it is still maintained. On iPhone the choice is narrower, so confirm the extension you need is supported before switching browsers. Keeping the extension list short also helps battery life and avoids conflicts between tools that do similar jobs.
