Microsoft Edge takes a completely different approach compared to current standard browsers like Chrome or Firefox, especially as the best web browsers today commonly suffer from a chronic issue of RAM consumption. However, with Microsoft Edge, the problems of RAM and battery consumption are almost nonexistent.
Although Microsoft Edge still encounters some issues such as the inability to type in Vietnamese, the solution to the Microsoft Edge Vietnamese typing problem is readily available and very simple, just by installing Vietnamese typing support tools like Unikey or Vietkey.
Meanwhile, there are many other performance-related issues with Microsoft Edge's web browsing that can be quickly resolved by resetting Edge and configuring the browser settings to make web browsing as fast as before.
