Vivaldi 5.1 comes to Android: one of the best web browsers for Android becomes more customizable and optimized

When we talk about Vivaldi, we do so referring to one of the most versatile and powerful mobile browsers that we can find in the Google Play Store for Android. The browser has been updating for some time with improvements of different depth and now jump to version 5.1 welcoming new themes and tab changes, as well as adding performance improvements for both tablets and Chromebooks.

Although it can be considered a minor version, despite the number jump in it, in Vivaldi 5.1 we find a more customizable browser and that optimize resources in order to have many open tabs, something that usually happens on a regular basis since the apps open new tabs in our browser with each request.

More aesthetic, customizable and better optimized

One of the points affected by the new Vivaldi 5.1 for Android is in the optimization of system resources when we have many tabs open. Something that is relatively common in mobile browsers means that the phone now suffers less by optimizing memory consumption, so an increase in speed should be appreciated in these cases.

As far as browser customization is concerned, Vivaldi 5.1 for Android adds an option to change the minimum width of tabs. We just have to go to Settings > Tab to decide there what minimum width we want them to have, so we can determine how much text of the title of each tab we want to be able to see, and thus move more easily between open tabs.

And speaking of the purely aesthetic aspect and not of usability, Vivaldi 5.1 brings new themes to Android so that we can have the browser to our liking. With the new version we have four new preset colors and the option to choose a custom color for our browser design. This option is located in Settings > Appearance > Theme.
