Hi ChromeRefugee, I am jumping straight to the end to respond. We are working on a native ARM64 version of Microsoft Edge. You can read about it here: https://blogs.windows.com/msedgedev/2019/04/08/microsoft-edge-preview-channel-details/#d4RSZSQO3yPS3Bv6.97. While we don't have anything to announce now, please be sure that we are still working diligently on bringing our new browser to ARM64 devices as soon as possible. Thanks - Elliot

My understanding is that the version of Edge that can be installed on Android phones is compiled for Arm it's also using the Chromium engine. I don't know if it's 32 bit or 64 bit though but I do use it on my Android phone and it runs very well. I haven't heard anything and am just speculating but I would think that this could be used on Arm versions of Windows hardware. ChromeRefugee
