    Well no sh*t, the Edge version u r using is based off of Chromium. But honestly, it doesn't matter what web browser u r using for testing. Firefox, chrome, Edge, etc performance should be similar. Keep up the good reviews MrMobile!! Luv ur videos since Pocketnow.

    I have the Galaxy Note 10 Plus but I kinda want this new tablet as well. Do you think it's worth it to get the tablet or would it be a waste since this phone pretty much does what a tablet does anyway??

    Nice review. Thank you for your work. Not considering price, would you take the Samsung Book S (ARM)0 over HP Dragonfly G2 (10th Gen Intel)? Both laptops are almost exactly the same size and weight.

    I've converted several pages to webapps too. Really enjoy using Edge over Chrome now.
