There’s also a privacy and security area for extra safety on your tablet and handset. Obviously you also get the cool add-ons to use in the browser. The novelty of the update is the support for tablets, that involves faster startup and a beautiful new design. There’s also a find in page feature, the text selection has been fixed and desktop sites can be requested from the menu. The tabs experience is improved and you just need to swipe to close.
