Key notes

Edge Canary on Android is getting a feature that Google Chrome has had for years: the ability the see little thumbnails of each search suggestion. According to Windows enthusiast,@Leopeva64, who spotted the feature, whenever you search for something on Edge, the browser will automatically show suggestions with thumbnails attached to them.

For now, the search suggestions’ thumbnails only show up onEdge Canary for Android. The other Edge channels, such as Edge Dev, don’t have the feature yet.

Google Chromehas had this feature for years, and it helps users get a better idea of what they’re looking for. It also enhances the experience of web browsing, as thumbnails often motivate people to spend more time on search engines.

With this update, Edge is finally coming closer and closer to Chrome, and if the Microsoft browser keeps implementing similar features, it might actually have a chance to compete with Chrome in the long run.

If the feature is currently onEdge Canary, then it will be released to the Stable channel at some point in the following weeks. Are you excited about it?
