Download new version of Opera

By Aleksander AasAleksander. Thursday, July 1, 2010 6:00:57 AM

Today we released Opera 10.60 for all platforms. Opera is free and available from http://www.opera.com/browser/.

New Features

Opera 10.60 is the fastest browser we have ever made. With millions of users expecting Opera to deliver the future, we now support search suggestions, Geolocation, WebM and new HTML5 elements such as Web workers in addition to added security and stability fixes.

Geolocation

Geolocation is the next generation in browsing. With Geolocation you can let sites detect your location and do cool stuff. To try it our check out our Live map, to find out where people are downloading Opera!

WebM

The WebM format consists of VP8 video and Vorbis audio. In simpler terms, it's the future of video Online! To try it out either go to the demo of Elephants Dream by the Orange Open Movie project or you can go to http://www.youtube.com/html5/ and enable use of the <video> tag!

Download

Opera is free as always and available for all platforms in 42 languages from http://www.opera.com/browser/. After downloading we would love to get your feedback on the browser and see you play with the Live map.

The actual release seems -really- slow compared to the last couple of betas.

I also can't get through to any pages on the Desktop Team blog

Pinha24pinhaomega24 # Thursday, July 1, 2010 7:51:51 AM

the video demostration in www.opera.com (that use html5 WebM)

I think it's because it was not done loading. I got the same thing first time I tried to play it.

Pinha24pinhaomega24 # Thursday, July 1, 2010 7:59:30 AM

i leave it there and no... stay at 1 sec.

and clicking the play/pause button, closes the video
well, enyoing the speed of 10.60 anyway ^^

NicoHellbillyDeluxe # Thursday, July 1, 2010 8:08:08 AM

Awesome!
Can you please also make the green picture with the bird (as seen on opera.com) make available as a wallpaper? 1920x1200 would be really nice. Thanks a lot in advance!

woah fastest version yet.. very impressed!

behighland # Thursday, July 1, 2010 12:32:08 PM

Quite fast; but with Opera Turbo, it's not fast enough to blow me away!!

OPERATORGÖKTÜRK # Thursday, July 1, 2010 12:49:34 PM

Fantastic but panels looking

great!

Nice.

I have one question: how the hell have you managed to get such an awful audio in browser presentation (introduction.ogv)? Vorbis @192kbps should be perfect for this cause, but your sound quality is much worse than that. Please reencode and remux the audio stream or people will consider it the real quality of open formats.

I hoped, that this nice experiment will work in 10.60. Unfortunatelly, it isn't.

Richardmusickna # Thursday, July 1, 2010 11:51:35 PM

Very cool!

Victorsilaser # Friday, July 2, 2010 1:00:57 PM

I appreciate WebM and new HTML5 elements but few sites I visit quite often now don't display properly like they did when I was using 10.54 and earlier releases.

I'd like to know WHY Opera can't display some sites the right way. I know that they probably have some html/xhtml/css etc. errors in their code but I've never had any problems with Internet Explorer 7(!), 8 or Fiferox 3 (and newer versions). I'd like Opera to be my only browser but it constantly lets me down and shows me that I still can't get rid of Firefox.

Look at the forums, or the Opera Software FAQ's

My guess - mostly - because it's on the author's not noticing Opera as a browser. An idiot author. A browser loved by millions.

. . .
All info that'll be expressed are based on mine only. . . .

SORRY TO SAY THIS TO FX FANS.

I just hated how FX is, the lamest browser i've seen

hopefully mozilla almost gains some trust of mine on fx 4.0 but not that much.

10.54 did not support WebM and 10.60 does (Opera is the first with a stable version that supports it chrome and ff will some time have a stable build with support)

If a site is actively broken, use "Help->Report a site problem..."

nkhullar # Saturday, July 3, 2010 10:35:40 AM

Opera is lot faster, but is eating up lot of Memory in initial tabs
Opera seems to be not loving Gmail. This email client doesn't fit into a window and I have to set "Fit to width"
ANNOYING ....

I think, Opera is just step away from being a default browser. It needs to check memory consumption and also have to check compatibility with top visited websites.

Thanks for good software (Must say, despite being a proprietary software, tweaking with .ini files is damn easy).

I can consider a heartbeat away. . . a heartbeat away.
