Opera One certainly does the most ambitious change this popular and popular browser will experience for many years. I have noted before that this browser has always been a source of innovation, adding new features that have subsequently been adopted by its competitors. However, the company obviously doesn’t have the resources to compete with Google and Microsoft, especially when it comes to marketing, which is why Opera never managed to gain visibility (and therefore user share). ), as it would fit according to justice.

However, it is true that it has been a long time we do not see its complete restoration, which is a little surprising in a company that is used to pampering its browser interface above all. However, we can put this down to the fact that they decided to focus a lot of their efforts on Opera GX, you know, the community-focused browser player and that for this purpose, in addition to a design that is visually adapted to this world, it integrates functions and services that can be of great interest to this world. Now, almost four years have passed since its launch, so it was time to “weight up” the Opera interface.

Well, that’s exactly what they tell us on the browser’s official blog, where we can read the announcement Opera One, a complete redesign that will replace the standard Opera at the end of the year. Now we are not only talking about an aesthetic change (which has also occurred and is very significant), but about a complete redesign that will reach the very bowels of the application and which, according to the company, will be responsible for changes aimed at significantly improving the user experience.

It’s already available in early access, although it’s still waiting to get some of the future features, Opera One has a more modular design that is supported by a new multi-threaded composer., which allows different elements and visual effects to be managed by independent threads, improving the performance and fluidity of the user interface. So it’s not surprising that Opera mentions fluidity several times.

One of the most interesting innovations that we can find in the new Opera One is intelligent management of interface elements, because through contextual analysis and artificial intelligence-based learning; It will adapt to the content we are viewing to try to provide only the tools and functions we may need in this way. On the other hand, we will also find news in the management and organization of bookmarks, which with a new paradigm Islands Tab, proposes a more convenient system of arranging them. This will take care of the automatic creation of the islands, but we can also arrange the cards manually if we wish.

Of course, new features and tools related to artificial intelligence also have their place in Opera One ChatGPT, ChatSonic and AI prompts will be enabled by default, although I’m sure it won’t surprise anyone at this point. And the same with other distinctive services of the browser, such as the integration of its free VPN service, which you can extend if you contract VPN Pro.
