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.

Microsoft products generally perform well under the hood. The problem is the other stuff.

That is what we hate, because both of these interrupt the process of work, and replace it with the process of working-around-Microsoft.
