Microsoft Edge has two different efficiency modes you can switch between: The thinking is that if you’re on battery power and need the battery life to last as long as possible, the browser will limit its demands, meaning slower performance but less battery drain. To see the two available modes and to switch between them, click the three dots up in the top right corner of the Edge interface, then choose Settings and System and Performance.
