Microsoft's Edge browser might seem to be the appropriate target since
it's integrated into Windows 10, but "Chrome, as a non-OS-supplied
browser, like Opera, is the natural target," said Rob Enderle, principal
analyst at the Enderle Group.Chrome "is far easier to displace, likely
because users are less wedded to their browser," he told TechNewsWorld.
"Given Chrome hasn't been successful displacing IE users with more
resources, Opera likely felt they shouldn't either."
The power-saving feature might prove attractive to users, but, given
Opera's minuscule market share -- less than 2 percent of the global
desktop browser market in April, according to Netmarketshare -- it's
doubtful whether it will make much of an impact on the competition."This
actually got me to think about using it on my laptop," Enderle said.
