Microsoft Reproduces Google's Battery Life Test To Show Edge Beats Chrome (venturebeat.com)

Earlier this year, Microsoft said that its Edge browser was more power efficient than Google's Chrome, a claim that Google refuted with its own findings. But the debate isn't over. An anonymous reader writes: Microsoft is at it again -- touting Edge as the most battery-efficient browser on Windows 10. The company has rerun its battery tests from the previous quarter using the latest versions of the major browsers, open-sourced its lab test on GitHub, and published the full methodology. But this time, Microsoft says it also replicated one of Google's tests to show that Edge lasts longer than Chrome, Firefox, and Opera.

Of course it has better battery life, it has no features and doesn't work with many sites.
So Edge is the best browser on Windows 10 by Opportunist · 2016-09-15 05:38 · Score: 4, Funny

Great. It's a bit like being the top dog in the dump.
