Safari users will be hard pressed to find a better experience that offers a much deeper set of extensions to choose from as well as greater Web compatibility. In the end, Microsoft Edge for Mac is a fantastic macOS experience that rivals other browsers. That also includes the Edge browser for iOS and iPadOS, where all of the same data will be available including open tabs. That goes for bookmarks, passwords, extensions and more. This cross-platform compatibility makes Edge for Mac even more friendly, knowing that anywhere else you use Edge will be automatically connected and supported. Where Edge can excel is that all of the same data can be synced, but you can do so with any Windows computer – like a work machine. While Safari does an excellent job of syncing bookmarks, passwords and open tabs across its ecosystem, that limits you to just the Apple world. Here’s one area that Microsoft Edge for Mac can quickly pull away from Safari. Software benchmarks are one thing, but what really matters is real world speed. Websites load fast and with better compatibility than Safari thanks to the Chromium engine. However, Edge is hardly bloated and performs admirably. If you need the most minimal memory footprint, Safari is and likely always will be the answer. PerformanceĪt the end of the day, it’s going to be tough to beat Safari on macOS in terms of overall performance. There is definitely still some tracking based on web searches, so there is still plenty of work to be done on that front, but it’s less so than with other browsers. Overall, after a few months of use, this appears to work pretty well, and while most people will go with the Balanced option, since it arrives as the default, it won’t hinder performance. In a perfect world, websites receiving this request would stop tracking you, but it’s a cautionary approach as websites can still track your activities even if this request is sent over. As an additional option, Edge also lets you send a website a “Do Not Track” request.
