Microsoft Edge is a web browser developed by Microsoft. It is the default web browser for Windows 11, replacing Internet Explorer. Microsoft Edge offers features including web page customization, improved security, better performance and integration with Windows 11. It also includes support for extensions and tabbed browsing.
As a powerful browser, Microsoft Edge integrates many AI functions to provide users with more convenience. First of all, backed by a more powerful and accurate AI model than ChatGPT, Microsoft Edge's search engine will enable all users to embrace an absolutely intelligent, accurate, fast and efficient information retrieval and generation experience. Secondly, Edge has an intelligent detection function, which can identify the user’s behavioral characteristics, so as to issue an alert in time when the user encounters a network security risk. In addition, it also has an intelligent translation function, which allows users to directly complete the translation of web page content in the browser without copying the text of the web page to translation software for translation. Finally, Microsoft Edge has a powerful voice assistant function that can provide comprehensive help based on the user’s voice input. These AI functions make Microsoft Edge more intelligent and provide users with more convenience.
With a user-friendly interface and a range of customizable options, Edge offers features like tab management, built-in tools for note-taking and PDF viewing, integration with Microsoft services, privacy enhancements, and seamless synchronization across devices.

Of course, if you are looking for a fast and secure browser, Microsoft Edge is definitely the first choice. The powerful search engine provides you with an extremely fast and accurate search experience, and tracking prevention services help you surf the Internet more safely.
In the latest update version, the developers of Microsoft Edge: Web Browser have not only enhanced and optimized the stability and smoothness of its operation, but also supplemented and updated the massive amount of information newly requested by a large number of users, and fixed the occasional failure of recent user feedback.
From the actual experience, this application does have many advantages, and it is also my preferred browser for surfing the Internet. The Edge browser’s search box offers more features than other browsers, such as entering the weather and viewing answers without having to hit the search engine, which is very convenient. IOS and Windows have nearly identical support for organizing and editing Favorites and Collections. Some hidden settings in this app are even supported via URL, just like on Windows. In other words, I like to use Edge as my browser of choice on iOS over others.
