    Windows 10’s Microsoft Edge is more battery friendly than Chrome


    Microsoft Edge, Windows 10’s latest default web browser, and the successor to the company’s Internet Explorer web browser is still struggling to improve its market share since it first appeared on PCs in 2015. The Internet Explorer has been usurped by the Edge browser but it still has more users.

    Microsoft is betting big on Edge and it still hopes that the browser would one day become the preferred choice for users on Windows 10. Microsoft in the past few months has published new ads to promote the new features of Edge, and the company’s latest ad claims that the browser is more battery efficient.

    Microsoft uploaded a new video to YouTube to promote that Microsoft Edge in Windows 10 is more battery friendly than Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox. The company’s default web browser for Windows 10 could save power when running the basic tasks like watching a video on YouTube or apps.

    While it’s yet another ad that shows just how advanced Edge browser is compared to third-party apps, but truth to be told, Microsoft’s default browser is indeed better than the rivals in terms of battery life.

    The new 30-second video on YouTube highlights the benchmark test that Microsoft performed to compare the battery life of a Windows 10 PC when using Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, and Mozilla Firefox.


    As expected, Edge wins the test and is more power efficient than the rivals. It is, however, worth noting that the gap between Edge and Chrome is closing as Microsoft’s browser can last only 14% longer than Google’s. On the other hand, the company says that its browser can last 98% longer than Mozilla Firefox.

    Microsoft is using a video-playback benchmark and the test has been conducted on Surface devices running the Windows 10 April 2018 Update, version 1803.

  2. Can't install Chrome from Edge in Windows 10

    After reading several of the posts listed here, I too have been using Edge since updating to Windows 10 and could not download Chrome. So, following one of the suggestions, I went to the start button and opened programs and selected Windows Accessories
    and selected and opened Internet Explorer and searched for Google Chrome download and it installed in less than 3 to 5 minutes max. Not sure why problem in trying to install using Edge but Explorer allowed me to get it down in minutes. Thanks for suggestion.
