Best way is to detect is jquery-migrate with minimum and tested code which is designed to resolve any compatibility issues before using jQuery Migrate 3.0 and upgrading to jQuery 3.0.

if($.browser.mozilla) {

} 
else if($.browser.chrome) {

} 
... go on

This is working I am too using it .It will show perfect browser name .Here is the demo

var isOpera = (!!window.opr && !!opr.addons) || !!window.opera || navigator.userAgent.indexOf(' OPR/') >= 0;
    // Firefox 1.0+
var isFirefox = typeof InstallTrigger !== 'undefined';
    // At least Safari 3+: "[object HTMLElementConstructor]"
var isSafari = Object.prototype.toString.call(window.HTMLElement).indexOf('Constructor') > 0;
    // Internet Explorer 6-11
var isIE = /*@cc_on!@*/false || !!document.documentMode;
    // Edge 20+
var isEdge = !isIE && !!window.StyleMedia;
    // Chrome 1+
var isChrome = !!window.chrome && !!window.chrome.webstore;
    // Blink engine detection
var isBlink = (isChrome || isOpera) && !!window.CSS;
