others resort to uninstalling it instead

Tried it once and didn't like it over Chrome so I stuck with Chrome. Chrome has a lite mode to save data consumption (and therefore a little battery too).

Hi , yeah I used to use chrome but the ads got in my nerves tbh , Firefox is good but some pages as you mentioned don't render properly , I like edge but it seems it has this issue that's known on the Microsoft community about battery usage

I believe it killed my old Samsung S9, the overheating was ridiculous, apparently it always uses 2 processor cores. I have an A35 now and I won't be using edge at all.
