User agent string/ID
The user agent string for Chromium-based versions of Opera resembles the Chrome string with an additional browser signature:
OPR/[version major].[version minor].[build].[patch] (edition)
This signifies the name of the browser (OPR) followed by a series of numbers denoting the build.
An edition may be included in the string, if the build is from the developer or beta pre-release streams, or if the build has been custom-made for an Opera partner. For example, a developer channel release of Opera’s partner build with Yandex may have a signature that looks like:
OPR/25.0.1614.18 (Edition developer-Yx)
The full user agent string looks similar to this:
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/50.0.2661.87 Safari/537.36 OPR/37.0.2178.31 (Edition beta)
This string will vary depending on your operating system and the build number you are using. Broken down, these objects mean:
- Mozilla/[version]
- Signifies the browser is Mozilla compatible.
- (Operating system)
- Signifies which platform and version of operating system the browser is running on.
- AppleWebKit/[build]
- Signifies the browser is WebKit compatible.
- (Layout engine)

- Chrome/[version, build, and patch]

- Safari/[build]

- OPR/[version, build, and patch]
