Opera may not have won the browser wars in recent years, but it's still a well respected application that ranks fourth in the browser stakes. Opera users benefit from a built-in BitTorrent client and integrated IRC chat, and it's consistently rock solid and speedy.
Many users first come across Opera Software on their smartphone. Opera Mini, the company's mobile browser, is renowned for its speed and efficiency. The desktop browser benefits from a variety of extensions and the same fast load times. Its JavaScript functionality allows custom code to be used on web pages, offering some of the customisation that GreaseMonkey users enjoy in Firefox.
Developer
Developer allows early testing of new features, mainly targeting developers, extension creators, and early adopters. Opera developer is not intended for everyday browsing as it is unstable and is prone to failure or crashing, but enables advanced users to try out new features still under development, without affecting their normal installation of the browser. New versions are released frequently, generally a few times a week.
Features:
- Combined search and address bar.
- Discover feature (a list of websites with the latest news).
- Off-Road mode (compression technology to reduce data usage, similar to Opera Turbo).
- Private browsing tabs.
- Speed Dial with visual folders.
- Bookmarks synchronization with desktop version.
