I've been using it almost exclusively on my laptop for the past few month as an experiment. And honestly it's a perfectly fine browser that basically just works as well as any other browser. That being said I cannot come up with any good argument why you should switch to using it instead of whatever you are currently using.

Yeah, I've been really impressed with Edge. If I had started using Edge instead of having all my stuff in Firefox, I probably never would have bothered switching.
The developer tools on Edge are not on par with Chrome or Firefox. That is one reason I stay away. I don't mind using the browser once in a while when I need more sessions than my Chrome profiles.
I switched for battery life. Chrome just crushed my laptop.
Yea, I've heard that, but I honestly have noticed a practical difference between Chrome and Edge.
Typing on a surface pro/windows tablet is crap on chrome?
