Opera 25 Beta: Bookmarks and New Express Panel
Today we want to show you the beta of Opera 25. Starting from this version, the test builds, which are about to become final, are again called beta, and not Opera Next. It turned out that the word "beta" is much clearer to the average user and there is no doubt about the name of the browser itself.
Bookmarks
I managed to grab a lot of drawbacks for this idea, but we have been saying for a long time what to do as we were not interested in, we are interested in doing better. Therefore, the new bookmarks in Opera 25 beta are not just an endless and useless array of links. The bookmarks interface is more reminiscent of the old express panel (yes, it has also been updated, see below).

It helps to add bookmark recognition of the picture selection dialog to the bookmark. Following the example of social networks that generate an extended snippet from any link, we analyze the page and suggest you choose the right picture for it:
- If there is no successful picture - take the icon,
- no icon - take a picture,
- but for now it is being generated - let's show an improvisation on the topic of the page address, which is also quite recognizable.
But if you still like long lists, then you can always switch to the list of links. But he also became better: you not only see a decent piece of the title, but also see the link, it can help in difficult cases. And of course there is a search.
Express panel
The new express panel now resembles the bookmarks bar in mobile browsers and also seeks to show the site icon, rather than an inaccessible snapshot.
