However, recently, Microsoft surprised everyone with a brand new Edge browser. Not only is this a complete overhaul, but the new version of Edge is actually a replacement of the predecessor.
The reason for this is that Microsoft went back to the drawing board, and built a browser on the Chromium engine, which is the same engine that is used in the popular Google Chrome browser.
This means the new Microsoft browser encompasses the best bits of Chrome with the visual expertise of Microsoft. The result is a beautiful looking browser that is leaps and bounds ahead of the older Edge browser. The feature list imitates that of Chrome, which is great because they are following in the footsteps of the best in the market, and when you combine this, with the speed and fluid UI, you have a very powerful browser package.
