It’s way more minimalist and helpful than before.
If you want a sneak peek of Microsoft’s latest Windows 10 offerings beyond what the company has already shown off, look no further. Microsoft blog WinBeta has posted video of a preview version of Microsoft’s new Internet browser, called “Spartan.”
Check out the video above and you’ll see a rundown of the Spartan browser’s new features, including integration with Microsoft’s voice-enabled assistant, Cortana. (The “Spartan” and “Cortana” names pay homage to Microsoft’s hit video game series Halo.)
Cortana can provide Spartan users with more information on a website or give more information than what’s on a particular page. When looking at a business’ site, for instance, users can ask Cortana for its opening times and contact information.
In January, Fortune reported that Windows 10 will be offered as a free upgrade for many Windows users. Windows 8 was introduced in 2012 to mostly poor reviews.
Windows 10 will be the first Microsoft operating system released under Microsoft’s new CEO Satya Nadella, who took over from Steve Ballmer in early 2014.
