Boosting the in-house browser – Edge

Microsoft hopes to improve the user experience with its browser in Windows 10, Microsoft Edge. The company believes that it has designed Microsoft Edge to be the best browser for Windows 10. People are choosing Microsoft Edge because it is safer and faster than Chrome, with better battery life. With all the dangerous security threats online today, Microsoft Edge blocks 9% more phishing sites and 13% more malware than Chrome – helping protect your identity and information; speed matters on the Web and according to Google’s own benchmarks, Microsoft Edge is faster than Chrome. And Microsoft claims there are other attractive features in Edge that will make the users choose the browser as the default one on their devices.

Apart from these two, there are many other improvements introduced in the new Windows 10 Creators update, particularly on the security front and also aspects like ‘night light’ and ‘mini view’.
