Although the original release of Microsoft Edge did not reach the same popularity as other browsers like Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox, the new version is different, and it offers (arguably) the best web experience for Windows 10 users.
In part it is because the new browser is now based on the Chromium engine designed by Google that offers better compatibility, faster loading times, improved security and support. Also, it is because, since the default browser for Windows 10 became available, Microsoft has been proactively releasing updates to improve and tweak the experience to stand out above the rest with features to, optimize performance, cross-device support, and much more.
