Internet browsing field is one of the most hotly contested sectors in the technology space. One of the most prominent internet browsers today is Opera. Opera started out as something of a research project at Telenor, the largest Norwegian company. Later on, after branching out into Opera, they opened the first version in 1996, operating specifically only for Windows.Later, the Opera makers wanted to use the prevailing handheld devices opportunity and began processing software onto multiple operating systems.

Later on, versions of Opera began to offer users the chance to view ads or block them from Google. By 2005, all of the advertisements were totally removed.Opera has some neat accessibility features that allow users to control the browser with the help of their keyboard shortcuts. Now, the latest Opera Turbo allows web pages to be compressed to 80% of its original size.

The system is also available on the famous software Adobe and can be found on many of the devices that support Adobe and its affiliated software. The Presto engine has been received well by critics and users alike and at the moment is a strong USP of Opera. However, Blink did not see same kind of reception and faced criticism from many quarters. This is due to the fact that it misses out on useful features such as UI customization, something prominent on the other web browsers.
