Microsoft offers three channels for those who want to test new features in the Edge browser first: Dev, Beta, and Canary. But most importantly, it looks like Microsoft will be rolling out another way to get updates to users faster than the stable channel.

Microsoft is testing a new switch in the Edge browser settings called "Get the latest Microsoft Edge updates faster." According to the description, the browser will automatically install updates when idle. Once the installation is complete, the tabs will be restored automatically.

When you enable the currently tested toggle in Edge, you may get updates earlier than Stable users, but not faster than Insider channels.

If you're using Edge Canary, try finding the toggle switch by navigating to Settings>Privacy, Search & Services.
