Microsoft Edge (Chromium)

Top Pro

Better web compatibility

Uses the same engine as Chromium so web pages render better. See More

Top Con

Unlike the legacy version, it doesn't have the option to set aside tabs which was a very useful feature

It does give you the option to give feedback for people who want setting tabs aside back, but it's not likely they're going to add it. See More

Great UI

It will soon get a new UI codenamed Phoenix. Very cool. See More

Let's just wait to see history repeat itself, and Micorsoft being fined for it. (Again!) See More

Synchronization between PC and phone is weak

Although synchronization between computers is similar to Chrome, synchronization between PCs - phone is weak. See More

Microsoft sends all your browsing history to Microsoft and tracks you by default

Microsoft Edge collects less information than Chrome, but still is collecting data about you and your interests. See More
