Edge for android and iOS use the built-in rendering engines on each platform.

Edge for Android is using Blink, Edge for iOS is using Webkit.

They could give you "Edge for windows 7" but it wouldn't be the same rendering engine from Edge on windows 10.

...except that they could? It would probably be simple to port the engine from win10 to win7, in a way that it wouldn't be to port it to a completely different os that is also mobile.
