    I'm trying to decide between the Dev and Beta Versions...Only want to keep one for main usage browser....any suggestions as to which would be better to go with? Any advantages/disadvantages? Feed back will be appreciated ...I currently have Beta installed now but was tempted to go back to Dev...Having a little trouble deciding....

    Comparsion is the thief of joy like they say. Both are different products but since you want to use only for main usage I'll recommend sticking with Beta.

    @Credstarter: Thanks for your input...Only reason i was going to consider switching is because Dev gets updates every week and Beta only every 6 weeks...Although according to microsoft, Beta is supposed to be the most stable of the three versions (Beta/Dev/Canary)...And the most "polished"...

    If that's true, i can see how it would makes more sense to stay with the Beta version if i only want to have one and i want to use it as my main (day to day) browser, until the actual final release of the new Edge w/Chrome...

    All three are pretty much stable in terms of web browsing as they're already build on a long established platform.

    Since this canary version Edge can now fix battery drain
    After Chrome, Chromium Edge can now fix the battery drain issue

    I switched back to the Dev version...I guess i just like those weekly updates
    Of course i added the Font Rendering Enhancer extension, just as i had on the Beta Version...I liked Beta but 6 weeks is a LONG TIME for an update...LOL

    Searches from the Lock Screen automatically open in Edge Stable now, doesn't even ask me for a default preference.
