This feature allows users to use vertically stacked tabs instead of the traditional horizontal tab bar. The vertical tab panel is resizable and offers the option to display full tab titles. ## Advantages of vertical tabs Vertical tabs provide significant convenience, especially for users who open many tabs. Since the favicons and full titles of the tabs can be displayed, each tab can be easily identified. Additionally, users can view only the icons to gain more screen space. ## Google Lens integration expanded Opera One has made Google Lens integration more accessible and enhanced its functionality. Users can now perform image searches directly from the Opera home page's search bar. Additionally, searches can be conducted using local files or images pasted from the clipboard. ## How to use Google Lens To use Google Lens, click the icon in the search bar to open a dialog box. From here, you can search by uploading a file, dragging and dropping, pasting from the clipboard, or entering an image URL. Search results are displayed in the current tab. ## How to enable new features The vertical tabs feature can be enabled from the 'Browser Tabs' section in the Settings menu. Google Lens can be used directly from the search bar. Both features significantly enhance the user's browsing experience. ## Opera One's competitive edge With these updates, Opera One stands out with its user-friendly interface and advanced features compared to other browsers. Vertical tabs and expanded Google Lens integration improve the browser's ease of use and functionality. ## Sources covering this story - https://9to5mac.com/2026/07/23/opera-one-browser-joins-the-vertical-tab-club-expands-google-lens-integration/ — --- _Summary written by Brifing from the original reporting.
