The so-called browser war is not a browser war: Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox are undisputedly dominant, with versions for all major platforms and the largest market share.
However, Opera is also a development to consider. This browser has its origins in Norway and has come a long way since its first version: it appeared in 1995 and since then, it has been adapted and adjusted to the different changes that the web has undergone.
The smartphone version of one of the best web browsers
The Android version of Opera offers the features and functions that have made it year after year an excellent tool used by millions of Internet users. Not surprisingly, some of its features have been imitated by Google and Mozilla browsers.
Opera is a fast and secure browser for your Android device and includes a news feed and an integrated ad blocker VPN.
