Opera GX Reviews

For the most part I love this browser but there are a couple quality of life changes that need to happen. First, when I click into the address bar the entire text should be highlighted by default. The number of times I tap and start typing only to realize I’m typing additional characters into the middle of an existing web address is too high. Second, when a new tab is created as the result of clicking a link or long-pressing on a link to force a new tab then the page that tab was opened to should be the earliest history state for that tab. I shouldn’t be able to open a new tab right to a page and still be able to hit the back button and be taken to the empty tab page. I get tripped up sometimes thinking I’m in the wrong tab because of this. The back button should be greyed out if I am looking at the first page that was loaded when the tab was formed. I should only be able to go “back” to the empty tab page if that tab was opened as a new empty tab. There are some additional annoyances here and there but those are the main gripes for now that are causing me to drop it down one star. Otherwise I love OperaGX! Oh, and also the release notes need to be actual release notes. I hate how many apps just do this “bug fixes & improvements” generic note on every single release. This is the tech-minded consumer browser right? Give me patch notes.

So, I know that this review is probably not even going to get looked at, but if it does, please listen. This is my first day using this and I love it already. I don’t have a pc yet but this browser is great when looking for free games that I will download on my soon to be pc. One problem, again, this is my first day using this so I don’t know if this is a problem every where, but whenever I close opera gx, all of my tabs get removed. If this is a problem that you can fix, I would really appreciate it, but if it’s just a problem on my side, sorry for wasting your time. Thank you, and I hope this browser becomes one of the most well known soon. It sure does deserve it.

This is a great browser, it’s easy to navigate and it has the latest news involving games right on the main screen. To me, it’s good enough to convert to on desktop, but not mobile just yet.

The mobile version is missing one big key feature, and that’s bookmarks and bookmark syncing with desktop. It could be that I just missed it, so if it’s there is not in the menu area where it’d make most sense to have it. It’s a big downside if you do stuff like read manga/webnovels too as it doesn’t have a “reading list” like chrome to keep that stuff separate. I got around that on desktop by just making a new bookmark folder and labeling it “reading list” and putting everything in that, but it’s really inconvenient to not be able to bookmark wherever you leave off on desktop and continue on mobile.

I think you can technically do that with “my flow” but that just adds something new and more complicated for those types of tasks, at least in my opinion. If bookmarks and synced bookmarks with desktop is added, then I’ll switch. Otherwise, I’ll stay with chrome.

Love this browser and have it on desktop as well as mobile. Super nice to have “My Flow” bc i have an iphone but run a Windows 10 desktop, so when i just need to send things to myself for work things i think of while I’m not directly at my desktop is really convenient! However… every time i try to find My Flow on mobile i need to search for it and it feels like they hide it bc you need to scroll to find it. Desktop is great bc it has a little icon in side toolbar! Mobile not so much :( truly only criticism so far after maybe 6 months of using it as default browser on desktop and loved it so much i got it on mobile as soon as it was available. it’s a well made piece of software that does all the things I need it to! Everything can always be tweaked, which is what’s nice about modern updates (things i very much look forward to in the future!)

Yea, this browser is really good. Has lots of features that just make this browser better than the competition. But one thing that all other iOS browsers have that this one does not. A downloads folder. Usually browsers will have a folder in the files application, and all files downloaded on the browser will go there automatically. But opera gx does not do that. So you have to manually go and choose the folder where you want the file to save. It is just one feature but it is one that I cannot live without. I tend to download a lot of files and doing this process on opera gx gets really tedious really fast. I always check back to see if they have added it but get disappointed when the devs did not add it. Please consider including a downloads folder for the browser. Thank you for your time.

I’ve used several browsers, including Safari, FireFox, Duck Duck Go, and many others, yet none of them have matched the customizability of this browser. This is so much better, especially with the Fast Action Button, which makes adding new tabs, going back, searching, and other important commands within a finger’s reach. I enjoy the customizable appearance, making it look cooler than Safari and other browsers. I love the private options and the ability to see when games are coming out and filter based on platform. Its so nice.

My opinion? Great browser. Great look. Great private options. Its the best browser here.

its really cool because i use opera gx on my pc and im excited for it on mobile but there are some things id like, its still in early access so a lot of these features will probably come soon. i wish that you can customize the theme and background, because the current background for the home screen and settings is a little hard to look at, also, the google app on mobile aphas a feature where it has recommended articles and posts based in your search history, like links to articles or like links to reddit

I love the browser as I have it on pc as well but there does need to be a couple features added. I know it’s just been released though so i’m not worried. Sometimes I can’t “open in app” when trying to open an application from the browser, it just takes me to the play store. I’d also like if after putting on private mode, it would stay next time I open it rather than switching back every time. I usually stay on private mode at all times so it would make it a little easier. Otherwise I love it, just needs to tweaks and lil updates.

OperaGX is like Google but it doesn’t use all of the data on my phone and it doesn’t crash as easily as google Chrome like you can have like 30 tabs open and it doesn’t crash and it can be download it on your computer and phone and tablet and on your xbox don’t Worry about how much it cost’s cause it’s free and you can watch twitch,Spotify and Instagram with Daily news and for kids Roblox all this and more so get opera there’s no reason not to you don’t have to but i Recommend it so try it at opera you wouldn't regret it.

Very well created browser. Best thing in my opinion is the ad blocker because I strongly dislike ads. However, you’re also able to customize with a wide variety of options. Not to mention the free vpn it gives while in private browsing, I’m not 100% sure if there’s a vpn enabled normally. I have opera on my phone as well as my pc both being set as the default browser. I actually have deleted my normal browsers off both devices since there’s nothing safari, explorer, or chrome can do that opera can’t. Strongly recommend.

Love OperaGX and all it’s extra features as well as its design, and I also use opera on my pc, but for this mobile version you should totally add an option to remove the like search bar at the top of the screen when you’re browsing horizontally. Hopefully this doesn’t already exist and I just don’t know how to do it lol
Instant edit: I know you can do this on most sites but there’s one I use where it doesn’t really scroll so I can’t slide the top away and you should totally add a button in the menu that lets you do that

OperaGX is great, I love the look and the adblock, also I love the "My Flow" tool to share things between my devices, the only thing that I see bad for OperaGX is that I can't sync it with my opera account(at least I haven't seen the option) if there's anyway to do it it would be perfect, but that's not very important, also I have some ideas for the download option, when you download something you have to click "open with" and then "save to files" if you can download files directly it would be perfect, besides that, is perfect!

Hi I’m a big fan of the new opera, it’s really good but there is one request and that is maybe there could be a download tab, basically it shows you all your downloads like the application on computer, it should also have an option to be able to drag the download files to somewhere. Instead of having to use files and drag it from here to there. Just my opinion! Otherwise I think it’s great, and the shortcut menu is really convenient! Have a good day!

Don’t get me wrong it’s hard to find a browser that is customizable enough for people to enjoy using it. But not to difficult that it’s over whelming. OperaGX is perfect for that. It’s simplistic yet complicated. It works in the background to keep you safe while you search for when that next coffee shop is. One downside to the mobile version in my opinion is there should be an option in setting to auto delete/close tabs when you close OperaGX . Or when you close all tabs atleast take you to the main screen.

OperaGX is great, gives me everything from GX Corner, My Flow works, and it has some nice themes. Though it's still missing a ton of the Desktop GX like Force Dark Mode, more theme customization, Extensions (please add extension support like firefox has), Speed dial Folders, Many of the options In the Settings, and a ton more. Some features wouldn't make sense but there are s ton that would. We also need Widget support, Some “Shortcuts” actions (iOS Application that apps automation, and some form of Google Lens tech. If these all get added, then I think Opera GX Movile can compete against other Mobile Browsers.

Ever since I accidentally stumbled on this browser I thought it was OK at first you know because I had the original version and then the GX came out the game browser I have it on my computer I have it on my phone I have it on everything I can have a browser on I love the transferability of it I love this features love the fact that it’s a gaming browser and it’s got the gaming features keep up the good work add more stuff and more features in the future please

I use Opera GX on my computer and I’m glad it’s now on mobile. It’s missing a few features from the desktop version, but is still better than anything else out there. I would like to see a sidebar on the iPad version, and I can’t use it on my iPhone 6 running the latest supported iOS 12, but other than that, it’s all pretty good. I just have to wonder how Opera thought it was a good idea to devote their resources to a mobile gaming browser before releasing a Linux version.

Opera GX is an amazing app that honestly kicks chrome out the window, with its ingenuity of sending info to a desktop and a mobile version of OperaGX as instant and easy OperaGX can it’s so nice. As well as it takes less resources of your PC or PHONE than Chrome ever does. And chrome is H U N G R Y. But other than that it makes so many things a lot simpler. It has amazing customization even to OperaGX image itself on your phone! Custom wallpapers for the browser and all! It’s amazing!

I just barely started using OperaGX today, and I love it, but I feel like it could use a small thing to make it cooler. My suggestion is adding some sort of sound effect, so every time you click a button for a tab or something else, it makes some sort of video game sound effect, so this can make OperaGX be a little bit cooler than it already is. Great app though!!! Will definitely recommend it to my friends.

I like opera GX on pc but this seems way different, we are stuck with favicon icons for tiles, we can’t even move them unless we use the move to front option but that’s a hassle, also isn’t this just a reskin of opera touch? It needs a lot of work, also where is the vpn? You can add a vpn to it to be for just the browser or full device, I hope it is upgraded, also last thing, the themes are way different, hope it is changed and made better, thanks.

this is the best browser ever, & NOW ITS FOR MOBILE
