Microsoft Edge is getting a price comparison feature inside Collections. Microsoft has announced a bunch of new features that are coming to the browser. The first come to the Dev channel, and expected to reach the stable branch by the end of this year.
Microsoft today released Edge 86.0.622.38 to the stable branch, increasing the browser's major version to Edge 86. As you can expect, it comes with a huge list of new features that were not earlier available in the stable releases of the app.
How to pin a website to Start menu with Microsoft Edge in Windows 10
Starting in Edge 87.0.663.0, the browser has received one more earlier planned feature - the ability to pin open websites to the Start menu. It is a nice addition to the ability to pin URLs to the taskbar, which exists in Edge for quite a long.
This week's Edge Dev release, which is build 87.0.658.0, comes with the traditional set of general improvements and fixes.

Microsoft is testing various layouts for the Microsoft Edge's Vertical Tab option. Currently, the browser shows a button prior to the tab row on the left. By clicking on that button the user can move the open tabs to the left and stack them vertically, or restore the traditional horizontal tab layout.

You can now enable a dedicated toolbar button for the Edge's Web Capture feature. So, in addition to the menu entry and its keyboard shortcut, you can access it with a single mouse click.
Some time ago Microsoft added a new feature to Edge Canary, called Web Capture. It can be used to capture and share a portion of a web page. The company officially announced it a few days ago, and already updated it with the ability to add annotations to your screenshots.
Microsoft has ported yet another feature of the classic EdgeHTML app to its modern Chromium-based successor. Now it is possible to pin the Favorites bar, so the flyout will stick to the right edge of the browser and remain visible on the screen.
