Opera Power Saving Mode will save your laptop's battery by up to 50%

“It’s extremely frustrating to run out of battery on your computer, whether you are out traveling, watching videos, or you have just left your charger behind. Our new power saving mode will nudge you when the laptop starts to consume battery, and, when enabled, it can increase the battery life by as much as 50%,” says Krystian Kolondra, SVP of Engineering for Opera.

Opera has made battery saving possible, due to optimisations like reducing activity from background tabs, adapting page-redrawing frequency and tuning video-playback parameters.

To use Opera browser’s power saving mode, users will need to click on the battery account, next to search and address field in the browser. Opera browser also detects when the laptop’s battery is running low and suggests enabling power saving mode. The icon, will however appear only when the charger is unplugged.
