The new Microsoft Edge Chromium - better than Google Chrome (Download here)
The new Microsoft Edge based on Chromiun arrived with the goal of taking over the browser market and now based on Chromium promises much more than its predecessors Microsoft Edge and Internet Explorer.
Previously Microsoft Edge was considered a total failure, because "SUPPOSEDLY", I say supposedly to avoid legal problems, Google did the impossible to slow down your browser when using Google services (Youtube, Drive and other services) This made many users quickly stop using the browser, because in the beginning the browser was very fast and came with great news, but failed to enter the market, because it was slow in Google services, practically everything that average users use.
Microsoft Edge is now based on Chromium This means that it cannot be sabotaged by other companies, because as we know Google Chrome is based on Chromium. and Chromium is a Google project with which appeared countless browsers such as Opera and Chromium is open source, which suggests that the same problem will not happen with the current Microsoft Edge.
Microsoft Edge Vs Google Chrome
But now will Microsoft Edge will be able to surpass Google Chrome and be better in many aspects than this browser, the answer is that I think so.
Which one uses less RAM?
As we know Google Chrome is a RAM guzzler, let's test which one uses less Ram with the same Youtube Windows open.
Here we can see where Google Chrome consumes more Ram, but that's not the problem, Google Chrome every time you use it increases a lot the RAM, while Edge is currently maintained has not lowered me 1 GB of RAM to contrary Google Chrome has managed to consume up to 4 GB of RAM.
Compatibility?
Microsoft edge is not yet available for Linux, but it is not surprising that soon it could be. But otherwise it is on all modern operating systems like (Windows, Mac, Linux, Android) I have even tested Microsoft Edge on iPhone and it was much better and faster than Google Chrome or Safari even on Android, I liked Microsoft Edge better, it is excellent on all operating systems.
The bad thing is that those of us who use Linux, still can't use it on this system.
Which one is faster?
When it comes to using Microsoft edge on Mac Os and iPhone it goes amazing compared to Google Chrome for Apple products, and even on Android, I had no problem with Microsoft edge.
But unlike in the Windows operating system when opening they are practically equally fast in Windows, I could notice differences but of nanoseconds with a stopwatch, so in this section I say that both are equally fast.
So in conclusion I find Microsoft Edge much better, as it became my default browser on all operating systems, the fastest in many of them and consumes less RAM, besides it is based on Chromium like Google Chrome.
