Microsoft Has Proven That Google's Chrome Browser Drains More Battery

Google Chrome, which is one of the most widely used browsers globally with about 55.7% share on desktop and 34.6% market share on mobile. However, in a recent test performed by Microsoft, they proved that Google Chrome drains laptops battery more than any other browser.

Microsoft performed a test with four similar Surface Books streaming media from four
different web browsers
. The test was timed and the computer running Google Chrome was the first to die after 4 hours and 19 minutes.

The next to die was the Firefox which lasted for 5 hours and 9 minutes.

Opera has been working on a battery saving feature and this seems to be quite effective as the computer running the browser lasted 6 hours and 18 minutes.

Microsoft Edge took the crown as the machine running it lasted 7 hours and 22 minutes, giving it about 3 more solid hours of use over Google Chrome.

This is just a business strategy.
Microsoft is trying to persuade people to use its browser, but apart from this great battery management, the browser still has a lot of catching-up to do with the rest. Lack of extension is one of the reasons a lot of people are yet to adopt it, unavailability on mobile platforms like Android and iOS is another.
