Opera GX Reviews

Summary: It has been practical for me to be able to use this browser since I have a better performance when managing projects and tasks within Opera since with the other browsers I have had a lot of resource consumption when opening the project management platforms. In addition, I can keep the social networks in a comfortable space without the need to have it open in several tabs since everything stays in the sidebar without overshadowing the main window and also when it comes to receiving notifications it is very easy to handle. With Opera a different air is handled than the browsers that are very standardized today, it can also be adapted to the needs, being able to have several work tables and changing the appearance of the browser itself, so there are very few limitations with Opera when I am surfing the internet. Another point that I found important and useful with this browser is that everything is synchronized as it can be available on any operating system, so no matter what device I have, I can have a good synchronization of everything I do in this browser on different systems. operating systems that I use to navigate with Opera.

Positive: + The workspaces are what caught my attention the most about this browser since it was most comfortable for me to be able to manage different tabs from different sites without closing them. This allowed me to have a better workflow regarding the real estate market research that I do since I can have a work space for the different brokers which I am investigating properties and on the other hand I can have a work space for networks and another for research and grow my company.

+ Contains an ad blocker that in the long run is very useful for those ads that constantly appear on certain sites and become annoying on many occasions. This has allowed me to browse safely by not having annoying ads that take up a large amount of space on the screen and that can confuse certain people to fall for certain electronic scams. So with this feature I don't have to worry about ads as it blocks pretty much all ads from any website that has them embedded.

+ In its sidebar it is easy to manage social networks, especially direct messages from any social media that can be used in the browser, including WhatsApp. So in times of having to manage personal or business social networks and use the browser for other activities, it is practical to be able to do it in Opera without having to use the mobile device that has been used so much for a long time.

+ It is possible to be able to modify the interface of this browser to your liking, besides that the themes are very visually pleasing, including the dark mode themes which are of various color combinations that accommodate different users. The sidebar can be modified as well as used to store the windows there, as well as the shortcuts of the pages, as well as direct access to the chats of all social networks.

Negative: - It is a bit complicated to add plugins within this browser, also not all plugins are available for opera, so if you need to switch to this browser you will have to consider the availability of different plugins if you need one in particular and if It is not available to see if there is a similar one that meets the needs and that is safe since this Opera plugin store is not very old. On the other hand, if it does not require special plugins then this browser would be a good option to have a good performance without consuming so many resources.

- Just as you can configure the resources that my computer consumes, it was also important to know how many resources I needed to be able to run the pages I was visiting, because if I lowered the resources of Opera too much, the pages tended to load more slowly or simply did not finish loading all of them. The elements. So it is a bit tedious to be constantly configuring the opera resources. It should have personalized performance profiles for different types of work, so it can be more adapted to the activities you are doing at any given time, so you don't waste time configuring how much ram and processor the opera is going to consume at all times. In addition to operating itself, it requires a minimum of consumption because if not, not only the tabs but the entire browser will simply freeze.

- I like that it has a VPN included, but it is not the fastest to navigate, it is possible that not all the pages you want to access load since the IP addresses of Opera are practically banned for certain sites. In addition, it may not be safe to use this VPN since it is integrated into the browser, having security problems, so you have to take precautions regarding this feature that is included.

- Not all sites are compatible with this browser, including Opera has problems with certain certificates as they are not up to date and this causes a "site not secure" message to appear which is not the case. Another thing that bothers me is that it is slow to open complicated pages, if they are simple websites there may not be any problems, but the rest takes too long to load the page definitively.

Summary: Amazing browser, totally would recommend this to everyone I know, you would enjoy it even if you're not into gaming.

Positive: Easy to use, easy to modify to your liking, you can control the RAM consumption so you're able to open as many windows as you want and it won't cause any issues or interruptions with your games.

Negative: No cons, I have been using this browser for quite a while and I haven't encountered a single bad thing in it.
