    While I prefer a simpler browser, I do appreciate that some people like a bit more colour, so speaking objectively, I think this is a good feature which has a nice interface for picking the colour. Maybe I'll come back to it again in the future, but for now, it's not for me.

    Cool, I like it. Nice having the vertical tabs fly-out have color that is different than the rest.

    I am always surprised at the features they bring us that we do not know are coming.. πŸ™‚ Thanks Team!

      These are ripped from chrome theme store and I like none of them. 

       

      I hate these periodic reminders that scream edge is basically chrome.

        these are basic colors really...if two browsers use the same yellow and blue color doesn't mean they copy each other πŸ™‚

    This is an amazing feature. I hope if they can add an option to select the color from a color picker, I would like to have a pure black shade as my browser theme πŸ™‚

      You read my mind!

    Interesting.

     

    I think that all colors are fine with the Light theme enabled, since the other areas of the browser do not change color and remain either with the Light theme or with the Dark theme.
    With the Dark theme I found that most colors don't go well.

      As an all time dark theme user, I find the colors convenient to use, specially dark blue, dark gray, gray blue, green and purple.

      but for light theme, orange, yellow, light pink, light gray etc. are more suitable

        Done, I really like that feature. Since rn, you have to have a windwos theme to change teh accent color. It;s great Edge has it now. Cant wait for to come to stable. Maybe next a picture for the theme as well. your own
