Chrome VS Microsoft Edge

[Guest]

Hi everyone,

I have recently been using Microsoft edge as my main web browser and then I have recently switched to chrome. I was just wondering if any particular web browser consumes more battery power over long use times. As a personal preference, I would prefer chrome as it is easier to use over Microsoft edge because I have noticed a better web browsing experience ever since I have switched to chrome.

Neither. I use Firefox as my daily driver and have been since Windows XP.

Neither

 

if you want chrome based browser, Opera is far more efficient, better, and even free VPN with good speed.

or stick to firefox.

 

Either way, these two browser are my main in my machines, including phones and laptop.

 

There's something just felt wrong with google chrome, I always get inconsistent performance with it.

Firefox is better than both.

Chrome is a ram hog and if you don't have enough ram to keep up it will feel sluggish.

I would also say +1 for Opera. I have tried it in the past and it's not bad, however my works firewall has rules that only allows specific VPN points via IP so it does not work here. I am using Firefox within Linux within a VM on my Windows machine though.

Neither... Vivaldi only

I prefer Chrome because I like the ability to sync between my phone and laptop to my gmail account. It's not perfect, but it does everything that I need it to do.

Out of the two. Chrome. In general: Firefox

 

I Use Chrome for daily stuff and Opera for watching region restricted content like the new Rick and Morty episodes because it has a build in VPN

I have used both Chrome and Edge. I would by far have to say that in my opinion Chrome is a lot better that MicE. There is actually a down side to chrome however, the thing is that Chrome actually uses up more battery life. The good thing is that it is only 10 seconds before Microsoft Edge. Microsoft Edge will save 10 seconds more battery power than Chrome. which i would have to say is not worth switching to if you need more time on your PC . The reason I like Chrome better than MicrE is because there is so much faster and with so much less advertisement. I hated it when I opened up Edge and couldn't even find the search bar because of all the ads and news articles filled with massive pictures. Chrome is a lot more easier to manage. I have only been using Chrome for a few months and have to say that is great. I even removed Edge from my task bar . In conclusion Chrome definitely wins my vote! I hope that you found this helpful.
