As can be seen from the featured image, the company seems to be trying hard to ditch the chequered legacy of Internet Explorer, which is why it moved away from the EdgeHTML engine and embraced Chromium in the first place. The development comes just a couple of days after the company revealed a new icon through an elaborate Easter Egg hunt. According to Microsoft, the stable channel will be updated on a similar timeline to the beta branch, which means users should expect updates every six weeks. Like Microsoft has its Edge web browser for Windows, Apple’s macOS comes with Safari web browser pre-installed.Įvery operating system has its own default web browser.In case you’re interested in trying out the new browser, you’ll be glad to know that Microsoft has just launched a Release Candidate (RC) on the beta channel, which means, barring some unforeseen events, the software is near enough to the final stable version that’s slated to launch in a few weeks’ time. While both claim to offer top-notch features, faster web browsing speeds and enhanced security, there are certain things that both are not so good at. Both the company’s keep updating their web browsers with new features and advancements to offer better user experience. But, ever since Microsoft ported its Edge web browser to Chromium, it has started getting new features and advancements regularly. The browser now also comes really close to Google Chrome, in terms of performance and features and more. To get a clear perspective, we have pitted both the browsers against each other in several categories and here’s how they compare. Edge vs Safari : Compatibility When Microsoft announced Edge, it ensured the web browser is available across the platforms, including Windows, Mac, Android, ChromeOS, Linux, etc. On the other hand, Safari is limited to the Apple ecosystem and available only for Apple devices. So, if you are a part of the Apple ecosystem, meaning you own a MacBook, an iPhone, iPad, etc, then Safari will be there and you can access all the data across devices, including history, bookmarks, passwords and more. But Edge being widely available provides the freedom to use any device running any operating system and still be able to access all that data and information.
Edge vs Safari: User interface and ease of use Edge and Safari both are developed by software giants and there’s no doubt that both offer good user interfaces, which are equally easy-to-use. Also, both being a default web browser, the integration into the operating system is also good on their respective operating systems.
However, if you are planning to use Edge on macOS, you might find it a little less integrated than Safari.
