New Microsoft Edge icon looks more like a wave and less like Internet Explorer

Microsoft Edge icon

Microsoft Edge is getting a new icon reminiscent of the company’s 2018 Microsoft Office redesign.

Announced by Microsoft’s Vishnu Nath in a tweet and spotted by The Verge, the new icon features a wave-like design in hues of blue and green.

Like Microsoft Office’s updated icons, the colours reflect simplicity and modernity for the browser, giving it a new look that moves away from its Internet Explorer history.

According to The Verge, the icon was revealed in Canary, an early-testing platform for new features in Edge, and will likely be released with Microsoft’s upcoming Edge Chromium browser.

The new browser is currently available to download in beta.
