Released yesterday for Mac, Windows and Linux, there are many goodies in this release such as OS integration, improved standards support, compatibility tweaks and more.
For the Mac OSX version, the Mountain Lion version has the support for Notification Center and built-in sharing of pages to social networking sites as well as the Retina Display. For Windows users, there’s the inertia scrolling and pinch-to-zoom on Windows 7 and 8. But that’s it for Windows version? There should be Retina Display support for this browser on Windows 8 as well as the similar features Mountain Lion version has for Windows 8. For Windows 7 version, I don’t know what to say but you know that Chrome derivative browser like Rockmelt allows you to use the built-in sharing features which may be similar to what this version of Opera web browser has.
Web browsers nowadays are about fast speed and new technology embedded so there is the new SPDY protocol which makes web pages load faster on SPDY enabled sites such as Gmail, social networking sites and Wordpress. Perhaps you can go to various social networking sites for faster experience if you want like everyday on Opera web browser but in my Wordpress blog, I may optionally put in some link to encourage users to download this version of Opera web browser for faster speed.
There’s the support for high-DPI screens in the extensions framework of Opera developers: with two simple adjustments, you can make sure your extension icons look great on Retina Display screens similar to using Safari web browser on Retina Display as well and especially IE10 on Windows 8 with Retina Display support. But what about Chrome and Firefox? Do they have Retina Display support as well?
