How does Battery Saver work?

The Battery Saver feature in the Opera GX browser works by optimizing various browser activities. It reduces activity in background tabs, tweaks video-playback parameters, reschedules JavaScript timers, and pauses plug-ins and animations.

When you unplug your laptop, the Battery Saver icon will appear to the right of your address bar, and you will be able to activate the feature and extend your battery life without needing additional apps.
