Touch experience is quite choppy compared to the old Edge
kitron Yeah, currently the touch experience is a total mess on Blink rendering engine. I really hope that MS can introduce the uniquely smooth multi-touch, scrolling and panning in this instance of its browser. EdgeHtml is still the best web engine for touch input on Windows.
Yes, touch isn't quite there. But I found that going into edge://flags "Endable Experimental Scrolling" helps... just a bit. It isn't close to the old Edge, but I understand it's a work in progress.
I use a Surface Pro 3, primarily in tablet mode. Having proper touch, swipes, is VERY important. I do hope that if/when they port this over to Android they carry over all the touch/swipe features.
One gesture that is completely missing is "Double Tap to Zoom". I constantly use this gesture on the old Edge.
