In the ever-evolving landscape of web browsers, a new contender has emerged that promises to blend the best of both worlds: Microsoft has a browser development background which is significant, as the Google Chromium project looks quite solid. This combination is referred to as Edgeium, although the Chromium-based rendition of this Microsoft Edge browser is also called. This blog post will be completely devoted to Edgeium and its working, starting from the historical background of the platform, all the features it possesses, its capabilities and performances, privacy issues related to the producer and the platform itself and, finally, the prospects of Edgeium in the context of the global browser market.

Performance Comparison: Edgeium fixed competition with rival rivals
Speed Tests
In several tests of comparative performance, the scores of Edgeium are consistently high and showing a ranking of the best. Employing of V8 JavaScript engine and Blink rendering engine – two cores from Chromium makes it provide comparable performance with the Google Chrome.
Resource Usage
