Opera 33.0

Opera has always been one of the friendlier browsers out there, with regular updates, great support and the ability to improve design and functionality.

Luckily, it stayed that way.
The browser is quite beautiful with its current interface having been updated to modern standards and lacking previous elements that used to irritate me. Menus and buttons are of proper size and contrast with backdrops enough to be comfortable to use. Performance also lives up to Opera's reputation. It's a very, very fast browser if you have hardware worth a nickel. Page loading is fast, and the new and improved Turbo mode makes it go beyond fast to downright instantaneous. I always respected that commitment to speed in Opera.

Luckily, being fast is not the only card this browser has up its sleeve. The developers did all they could to make you feel good while using their product. Now, Opera even has its own news feed called Discovery. This thing shows you latest news on various topics of your interest in the language set for the browser. You can navigate the menus and select what you want to read. And if you still want to go browsing further, an elaborate system of bookmarks helps you find the places you need. It even has visual bookmarking capabilities now. If bookmarks are not your thing, then Speed Dial, the feature first introduced in Opera and then copied a bunch of times, lets you jump right back to where you've last been. This feature has also been tweaked and upgraded, and combined with the safe and extremely useful password synchronization, it makes browsing a lot less annoying. Of course, keeping up with the times, Opera can now synchronize between different devices, so that you could pick up where you left off and browse on the phone after leaving your Mac.

But there's always the issue of safety. Luckily, Opera is one of the safest browsers, working perfectly well with most antiviruses and providing identity protection with the help of its Safe Browsing mode that masks your personal data and lets you bypass some restrictions. The newest version of Opera also has the Surf Easy feature. Basically, it gives you a VPN download option and hides regional detail on your profile so that you could bypass additional restrictions.

All in all, Opera has once again proved it doesn't disappoint its users. It works great, grows and changes just right, and any complaints we have today we will surely forget tomorrow.
