Overview
- Opera One R3 is available now as a free update, bringing the latest features to the main desktop browser.
- Opera’s assistant now draws context from the active tab or an entire Tab Island and can parse YouTube videos for answers, with the context feature switchable by the user.
- Opera says the rebuilt, Neon-based AI engine delivers up to roughly 20% faster responses on AI tasks.
- Tab Islands can be named and color‑coded for quicker visual organization, and split‑screen layouts now support up to four tabs in grid or horizontal views.
- The update adds Gmail and Google Calendar to the sidebar, introduces an Early Bird mode that replaces the separate beta, and debuts three dynamic themes including Spotify‑partnered Sonic with music‑reactive visuals.
