Stackable Tabs

If you like to work on multiple tabs in a browser like Vivaldi, you can now group them by dragging and stacking one tab on another. Then when you move your cursor over the stacked tab you will see the thumbnails of all the tabs in that group.

Reader mode

Works just like Microsoft Edge, you can now cut out the clutter and bring the focus back to the words that matter the most.

Philips Hue

If you have a Philips Hue lighting system at home or office, you can now make the Vivaldi browser to sync with your physical surroundings with the color of the web. It’s a very surprising and one of the first on the web.
