# Chrome 156 (beta) vs Chrome 154

Two majors ahead of stable, measured on the fleet: what 155 and 156 add and remove, which of it a page can already detect in the beta, what is identical on the wire, and what you can set before 156 ships.

[Google Chrome](https://cdpfleet.com/docs/browsers/chrome)

Chrome 154 has been stable since 22 September 2026. The fleet's `channel: "beta"` currently launches Chrome 156 (156.0.8078.4, in beta since 30 September), with 157 on `dev`; 155 is between them and already behind the beta. So this page compares the browser most of your visitors run today with the one they will run in a few weeks, two release notes apart. Below: what Google shipped in 155 and 156, what we could measure as different from inside a page and on the wire, which of those differences matter for detection, and what can be configured — by you in the launch, by us on the fleet, or by nobody.

## What 155 added

From the Chrome 155 beta post. Items marked **measured** show up in the probe table; "not exposed" means our probe found the API or property absent in the 156 beta build — behind a flag, in an origin trial, or shipped in a form we didn't probe.

-   **CSS:** `symbols()` for inline counter styles (**measured**: present in 156, absent in 154); `margin-trim` (**measured**: present in 156); `text-decoration-skip-spaces` (not exposed); the `corner` shorthands that set `border-radius` and `corner-shape` together (not exposed).
-   **JavaScript:** failed module loads can be retried with another `import()`; Import Text — `import … with { type: "text" }`.
-   **Web APIs:** Additional Windowing Controls (`window.maximize()`, `minimize()`, `restore()`, `setResizable()`, gated by the `window-management` permission — not exposed to a plain page); post-quantum algorithms in WebCrypto (ML-KEM, ML-DSA, X-Wing) plus ChaCha20-Poly1305; Digital Credentials issuance to mobile wallets; JPEG XL decoding (`image/jxl`); the `media-playback-while-not-visible` permission policy (**measured**: present in 156); linear canvas colour spaces `srgb-linear` and `display-p3-linear` (not exposed); new HTML insertion and streaming methods such as `streamAppendHTML()` (not exposed); custom request headers and `responseHeaders` on `WebTransport`.

## What 156 adds

From the Chrome 156 release notes.

-   **CSS:** `random()` for random numeric values (**measured**: present in 156); `scroll-snap-type: pair` (**measured**: present in 156); a pseudo-class for the element that started a navigation; `text-decoration-inset` (listed again; not exposed in this beta); optional descriptors in `@property`; single-axis scroll containers (`overflow: scroll clip`).
-   **Network:** compression-dictionary transport updates (`rel=compression-dictionary` — supported in both builds); `WebTransport` request headers and `responseHeaders`; module-load retry.
-   **Storage and security:** IndexedDB rewritten on SQLite for new stores; **Local Network Access restrictions** — requests to local and loopback addresses need the new `local-network` / `loopback-network` permissions.
-   **Graphics and media:** WGSL `@builtin(frag_depth)` with `less`/`greater` modifiers; a WebRTC diagnostic-logging API for authorised apps.
-   **Removal:** the `<fencedframe>` element and `window.fence` are stubbed, with phased removal starting in 157 (**measured**: still present in both 154 and 156).

## What is identical

Everything on the wire: JA4, peetprint, the Akamai HTTP/2 fingerprint and the header order are the same in 156 and 154 (the JA3 hash differs between any two Chrome runs because of GREASE — never use it to compare builds). Canvas output, the WebGL strings, screen and window metrics, plugins, permissions and `navigator.webdriver` (false on the fleet) are identical too, and a plain-`http://` URL loads directly in both (Playwright disables Chromium's HTTPS upgrades, see [Chrome 154 vs 153](https://cdpfleet.com/docs/compare/chrome-154-vs-153)). Timings differ only by proxy luck.

## What affects detection

-   **The version is declared in four places and they must agree:** the reduced user agent (`Chrome/156.0.0.0`), the `sec-ch-ua` header, `navigator.userAgentData.brands` and the high-entropy `fullVersionList`. 156 also moves the GREASE token first and changes it (`Not:A-Brand;8` ahead of `Chromium;156` and `Google Chrome;156`; in 154 it was `Not A(Brand;99` last). Spoofing the UA string alone leaves the client hints on the old version.
-   **Five cheap feature probes separate 156 from 154:** `CSS.supports("margin-trim", …)`, `CSS.supports("list-style-type", "symbols(…)")`, `CSS.supports("width", "random(…)")`, `CSS.supports("scroll-snap-type", "pair")` and `document.featurePolicy.features()` containing `media-playback-while-not-visible`. A "Chrome 156" user agent on a 154 engine fails all five; a 156 engine with a "Chrome 154" user agent passes them — equally suspicious.
-   **A beta user agent is itself a signal.** Most real visitors run stable; a 156 UA while 154 is current puts you in a small cohort. Use `channel: "beta"` to test what breaks before it ships, not to blend in.
-   **Local Network Access permissions** change what a page may fetch from private addresses; on the fleet the browser's "local network" is ours and unreachable to sessions, so nothing changes for you, but scripts that probe `permissions.query({ name: "local-network" })` get a new answer in 156.
-   **Nothing changed at the TLS or HTTP/2 layer**, so anti-bot systems keyed on Chrome 154's JA4 keep matching 156; only JavaScript-level version checks move. Post-quantum WebCrypto algorithms are a future async probe (`crypto.subtle` with ML-KEM), not something a server sees in the handshake.

## Configurable — by you, by us, by nobody

| Item | Who controls it | How |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Which major runs | You | `channel: "beta"` for 156 today, `"dev"` for 157, nothing for stable (154). When 156 goes stable, 154 becomes a pinned previous major for a while (`version: "154"`). See [Chrome](https://cdpfleet.com/docs/browsers/chrome). |
| Features that exist but aren't exposed yet (`corner`, `streamAppendHTML`, windowing controls, linear canvas) | cdpfleet (launch flags) | Chromium `--enable-features` / `--enable-blink-features` switches are set by the fleet, not by launch options. Tell us if you need one for testing. |
| Local Network Access permissions | Not relevant on the fleet | The browser runs on our servers; sessions can't reach our local network either way. |
| Ask before HTTP (the `http://` warning) | Playwright / cdpfleet | Off for fleet sessions through Playwright's `--disable-features=…HttpsUpgrades…` (measured: `http://` loaded directly in both builds). |
| `<fencedframe>` / `window.fence` | Nobody | Stubbed in 156, removed from 157 on; still present in both builds we measured. |
| Privacy Sandbox APIs (`requestStorageAccessFor`, Shared Storage, Attribution Reporting) | Nobody | Already gone in 154 and 156 (`document.browsingTopics` and `joinAdInterestGroup` are still present in both). |
| Fingerprint surface (UA, client hints, canvas, WebGL, screen) | You, per context | Unchanged between the versions; `newContext` options as before, or [Camoufox](https://cdpfleet.com/docs/browsers/camoufox) when the identity itself must change. |

## Measured on the fleet (2026-10-05)

One headful launch of each on the production fleet through the same proxy, probed from inside a page and via tls.peet.ws. Timings are a single sample; core counts are the node's.

### Launch and cost

Single run; timings depend on the proxy and on fleet load.

|  | Chrome 156 beta | Chrome 154 |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Launch body | {"headless":false,"channel":"beta"} | {"headless":false} |
| Threads used | 2 (linux\_headful) | 2 (linux\_headful) |
| Browser version | 156.0.8078.4 | 154.0.8037.97 |
| Launch request → browser ready | 0.7 s | 0.7 s |
| Playwright connect | 0.0 s | 0.1 s |
| Load example.com | 0.5 s | 1.0 s |
| Load tls.peet.ws/api/all | 2.4 s | 2.5 s |

### What the network sees

From tls.peet.ws/api/all, requested by the browser itself. JA3 hashes change between runs of the same build (GREASE), so compare JA4 and the HTTP/2 fingerprint.

### A plain-HTTP URL (http://ip-api.com/json)

### Playwright over the remote connection

## Bottom line

For scrapers, 156 is a quiet release: identical on the wire, identical fingerprint surface, and five new CSS-level ways for a page to confirm it really is 156. The practical items are the client-hint brand order change and the Local Network Access permissions — both invisible unless something inspects them.

For testers, the beta channel is already there: launch `channel: "beta"` next to stable, run the same script, and diff the output — which is exactly what this page did.
