Ratings and reviews

Really good browser, unfortunately Microsoft did an update that ruined it for a while, but this is now fixed. However, the problems that came with the update made me move to another browser as, at the time, Edge was unusable. If it wasn't for that disastrous update, I would still be using it, as I really liked it. It's a very decent browser. I still use it for work related browsing.

The option to put the address bar at the bottom keeps being reverted and then the option disappears from the appearance menu. No matter what I do I can't get it back manually and then sometimes out of the blue the option is back in the settings menu. Then I can enable it and just wait for it to revert and dissappear again.

A solid browser but it has one major drawback: it lacks a tabs tray like Google Chrome. Without a bottom tab switcher, it's frustratingly difficult to see and quickly switch between open tabs. This makes it hard to manage multiple pages in a single browsing session, especially when trying to keep track of what’s open. For those of us who rely on fast tab navigation, this missing feature really hurts the app's usability."
