Before jumping ship from Chrome completely try Vivaldi, it's built on the Chrome engine (so you can continue using your extensions and what nots) but it's made by one of the guys that created Opera but jumped ship before it got sold off to big money.

So like old Opera there's a huge emphasis on not only pushing what a browser can do (Opera pioneered speed dial for instance and tabs too iirc) but privacy and security as well.

I've been using it for a while now with Firefox really not being able to scratch the itch left by Opera and I'm really impressed with just how good it is for being built on Chrome.
