Hello,

Today, we’re transitioning Opera 53 from the beta line to stable. This build revamps the appearance of tabs and the address bar.

Changelog

Optimization of a tab’s display:

Mac users find it difficult to locate and manage a particular tab when many of them are open. We figured out a way to optimize this and made your plentiful tabs’ favicons more visible.
To make it even more visible and easier to manage, clicking on a tab will expand it.

Address bar colors:

There is also some fresh, sharpened coloring done to the address bar.
