>             Project: Apache Cordova
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Plugin Device
>    Affects Versions: 6.3.2

>            Assignee: Alexander Sorokin
>            Priority: Critical

> When building for platform browser the {{cordova-plugin-device}} (v1.3.2) returns "Chrome" instead of "Edge" when requesting {{window.device.model}} on an Edge browser.
> In the {{DeviceProxy.js}} the following code is there: https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-device/blob/master/src/browser/DeviceProxy.js#L40
> {code}
> function getBrowserInfo(getModel) {
>     var userAgent = navigator.userAgent;
>     var returnVal = '';
>     var offset;
>     if ((offset = userAgent.indexOf('Chrome')) !== -1) {
>         returnVal = (getModel) ? 'Chrome' : userAgent.substring(offset + 7);
>     } else if ((offset = userAgent.indexOf('Safari')) !== -1) {
>         if (getModel) {
>             returnVal = 'Safari';
>         } else {
>             returnVal = userAgent.substring(offset + 7);
>             if ((offset = userAgent.indexOf('Version')) !== -1) {
>                 returnVal = userAgent.substring(offset + 8);
>             }
>         }
>     } else if ((offset = userAgent.indexOf('Firefox')) !== -1) {
>         returnVal = (getModel) ? 'Firefox' : userAgent.substring(offset + 8);
>     } else if ((offset = userAgent.indexOf('MSIE')) !== -1) {
>         returnVal = (getModel) ? 'MSIE' : userAgent.substring(offset + 5);
>     } else if ((offset = userAgent.indexOf('Trident')) !== -1) {
>         returnVal = (getModel) ? 'MSIE' : '11';
>     }
>     if ((offset = returnVal.indexOf(';')) !== -1 || (offset = returnVal.indexOf(' ')) !== -1) {
>         returnVal = returnVal.substring(0, offset);
>     }
>     return returnVal;
> }
> {code}
> The code above returns model Chrome as soon as it is in the userAgent string. MS Edge provides the following userAgent string: {{Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/51.0.2704.79 Safari/537.36 Edge/14.14393}}
> So it seems we should be checking first if "Edge" is part of the userAgent. If so the browser would be Edge.
