Google Chrome recently talked up its performance enhancements on Windows, macOS and Android, now Vivaldi it taking its turn. The latest version of this Chromium-based browser is here and its makers say it’s faster than ever: browser tabs open twice as fast as in previous versions, while new windows open 26% faster than before.
Vivaldi Browser Gets an Update, It’s Faster Now
Stats were gleaned from tests using internal benchmarks conducted on an Ubuntu PC with a 2 GHz Intel Core i3 CPU and 4 GB RAM. While Vivaldi hasn’t benchmarked its browser comparative to others, (i.e. Vivaldi is quicker than before but not necessarily faster than, say Chrome), those that use it are bound to be thrilled nonetheless.
Although Vivaldi isn’t my default browser it’s a browser I’m rather keen on . I even have it installed on most of my systems (Linux or otherwise). Now, I could namecheck the features i prefer but honestly? That’d take time! Vivaldi is stuffed to the gills with options to tailor every single aspect of the browser to your own particular tastes.
Heck, it even features a built-in mail client these days!
Vivaldi 3.7 offers quite just a speed boost too. It debuts native support for Apple’s new ARM-based M1 processors, silent updates for Windows (should users want it), and therefore the following:
- Periodic reload in web panels
- Tab Stack by Hosts’ option
- Configurable website menus
Sound good? you’ll grab an installer for to date version of Vivaldi for Windows, macOS, and Linux (including ARM) direct from the Vivaldi website.
