The search engine for the most demanding (gamers)

I would define it as the browser that we should all try sometime, because it adjusts to your needs in your daily life, it adjusts to the applications you use the most and you have a response when searching infinitely faster than in other browsers, it saves battery, you have integrated ad blocker and the best thing is that you have the gamer version just as free, happy searching!

PROS

What I liked most about this browser, is that it is so customized, you can adjust everything to your liking, at first I thought it was going to be a little complicated, but the truth is that it is not, in the settings you can perfectly set what kind of features you want for your browser and which ones you want to hide. Personally I changed to this browser, because in a few days I was using programs that consumed a lot of my computer, and this surprisingly consumes very little, in order to have more efficiency when working. I use Opera GX which is the same, but gives you a gamer touch for those people who are in that world, the interface is quite attractive. Another very important security advantage is that it comes with an Ad Blocker, along with hidden trackers, for those malicious pages that you find on the web, this is something very positive and an extra point. On the left side, you can manage several things at the same time, such as viewing your messaging messages, checking which tabs consume the most of your computer, cleaning your cache and history, etc.

CONS

It may be that, there are quite a few features that you can get saturated in a certain way, since at the beginning everything is enabled by default, such as sound when typing, opening a new tab, sound of notifications, etc. But this can be simply removed or lowered in the settings, or simply muted in the settings. But in general, the problems I find with this search engine are very minimal, as it is tailored to try to consume much of your computer compared to other search engines.

Opera, a browser that has evolved greatly over the years.

Opera is fluid, fast, but overall, it's a highly customizable browser, you can make it entirely personalized and access all our data on any other device with opera, it has left me with good taste because you can see the care and passion that the developer team and the community have to make it a browser with personality. My final comment is that I profoundly recommend opera to the user who wants to have a fully own space and has the latent need to have a unique browser.

PROS

Opera is amazing because not only its a browser, managing this software is a whole experience, integrating particular functions such as a VPN, a coin converter, and others, the revolutionary sidebar is a feature that every browser should envy, permitting us to access our social media, bookmarks, and many other functions.

CONS

Notwithstanding being a browser-based on chromium, Opera can be somewhat overpowering or overcharging for the user that just wants to search on the web without the need to customize so many appearances, Opera isn't for everyone, and this can be confirmed by recognizing that this browser has more than one version, opening, even more, the gap between casual handling and customization experience that opera offers us.

Reasons for switching to Opera

I try opera and I liked it a lot, now it's my main browser.

I am heartbroken as I have been using Opera for many years...

PROS

So far I like the layout and the functions but they don't work anymore. :-(

CONS

...than the problem startet. First of all the new tab grouping function that I did not like. But what really made me leave opera that overnight the synchronisation of tabs did not work anymore. I reloaded manually twice. Checked my synchronisation in the browser which was activated. After a while I decide to leave. Such a shame in this world, that the few good things around are failing too.

Easy and comfortable with Opera

A simple and wonderful browser with a good and optional search engine that makes my day good thanks to its features and tools. Safe browsing without ads and blocked sites. Opera provides me with everything I need as a professional browser, so I use it on all my devices, whether phone or computer. It is the best.

PROS

This browser is easy and smooth and makes browsing enjoyable and entertaining with complete safety thanks to its exceptional features

CONS

Maybe the response speed for relatively weak devices

Longtime loyal Opera user

I have been very satisfied with the Opera I have been using for many years. It ensures fast and safe surfing on the Internet.

PROS

My favourite feature is Speed Dial, it speeds up the work extremely - I don't have to remember the web pages URLs. Integrated by default VPN, AdBlocker are very useful. Account Synchronisation is also perfect, but SideBar with messaging apps and fast setting are the best of best features.

CONS

There are few of them, but very rarely a web pages is displayed badly. Chat apps sometimes get stuck and need to refresh.

Reasons for switching to Opera

Opera is more user friendly, faster and contains integrated VPN and AdBlocker.
