Edge is erroneously being detected as a Chrome

Hi, Edge is erroneously being detected as a Chrome (Browser::BROWSER_EDGE) .

Edge on Mac reports: Chrome
Edge on Windows reports: Chrome
Edge on Linux reports: Chrome

Edge v.79.0.309.71

Any help would be appreciated to show correct browser name.

The new version of Edge (v79) is based on Chromium, and mimics Chrome's user-agent under certain conditions. That might be a possible explanation.

Additional info from my agents:

Microsoft Edge BETA (https://www.microsoftedgeinsider.com/):
