Not Chromium as is Microsoft Edge 44, believe that the Chromium based browser will be Edge 75. Currently 1903 installs with Microsoft Edge 44.18362.1.0
Q-6
Also the new builds allow you to finally sync bookmarks if you are using an android device. Don't know if thats relevant to you but it was driving me crazy lol.
I have been using the dev channel since it was released, to be honest I haven’t opened Chrome since spellcheck was enabled. Last night I installed it on my MacBook Pro, same experience I chose not to import keychain passwords, frankly a little surprised Apple would allow access. I use LastPass and the extension works fine on W10 and MacOS versions.
Finally!!! Seems like MS has got it right this time. Can't go wrong with Chromium.
I installed the beta on my Windows Desktop and MBP, and it runs flawless so far.
I doubt I'm going to stop using Chrome Browser anytime soon, but it's good to see MS will have a default browser that runs like it suppose to.

It's pretty much been stable since they started pushing canary builds. I have had chrome edge probably crash 1 or 2 times since its been out which is amazing considering the old edge would crash that many times in one week.
I updated today the old Edge to the new one on one of my laptops (Huawei Matebook X Pro).
I truly hate the new Edge.
First and foremost the scrolling is choppy as hell as on every other chromium based browser.
I ended installing Firefox...
I really miss the old Edge and carefully avoid the "upgrade" on my other computers.

Honestly, I havent noticed a real difference in scrolling between the two. No choppiness here. Not saying your's isn't, but mine is pretty darn smooth.
Updated my work laptop today and it works fine. Still sticking with Brave across all my platforms and mobile for now.
I`ve just updated my Surface Studio.
The new Edge simply works like charm on it.
But on the laptop (Huawei Matebook X Pro) is still crap.

Working well on my SB2. I played with the betas as well. Doesn't "feel" any different than Chrome -- not as smooth as the original Edge but no better or worse than Chrome. I'm hoping it's a little more optimized for better battery life, so I'll give it a try for a few weeks and see what happens.
