At 2:57, to the original author: it's not a bug; it's a feature.
The text is "shrunken to the left" to prevent horizontal scrolling and to enable you to read the text more fluently, and like any other feature (if you so wish to scroll right and then left and so on to read the text) by typing opera:config into the browser and setting "Fit text to screen" to "No."
Opera Turbo isn't supposed to make wifi any faster. It's meant for slow connections, like if your surfing the web on the go. I use Opera Mini on my phone, and Opera Turbo makes surfing the web significantly faster,
beta means the stage in which the program is in. programs usually go from alphas to betas, then to full and final production.
just to let you guys know opera mobile 10 is out of beta, and it is the best browser out there right now, and it supports lite flash, and yes it plays youtube vids, right in the browser.
sucks that it doesnt work with his phone completely. i have a touch pro for sprint. it works flawlessly with no problems. g-sensor. keyboard. the works.
Yep. It will actually reformat the layout if you go into landscape mode, to fit the width of the screen. And it will be different depending on your resolution I believe.
1:02 No, not kind of like Google Chrome. Kind of like Opera's desktop version. Opera has created some of the most famous internet browsing features such as tabs, speed dial, sessions, and torrent downloads, but it doesn't get any of the credit. A better way to put it is that Chrome's thumbnails are kind of like Opera's.
it is the same but this one is coded specifically for WinMo, i have the Opera Mobile 10 and the Opera Mini both running on my n97 they are exactly the same too but Opera Mobile is coded specifically with Symbian Code and it runs better :)
The most significant difference, I think, is that Opera Mobile renders the page itself. Opera Mini gets the rendered page compressed from the opera servers.
Scrolling is much smoother on Opera though, and it does the reformatting thingy (which are two big deals to me because I read a lot of articles). It also doesn't have the unreadable text issue on lower zoom levels, and doesn't seem that slow to me.
Why do you think that? The UI is better and it uses presto 2.2. What is there not to like? Sure colors on the UI might have been more stylish in v9, but that is hardly important.
The text being formatted like that isn't a bug, it's pre-flowing before you zoom in. if you zoom out to 60%, it flow all the way to the right to the edge but you can't zoom in. If you have it set to 200% for example, it'll look strange and bunched up on one side zoomed out but if you zoom in, it'll be fine because that's how you'll read it.
the "text is formatted strangely" thing is a feature, not a bug :P
in Opera 9.5 it would reflow the text only if you zoomed in, but in Opera 9.7 beta it already shows the text like it does in your video, so there's no reflowing of text when you zoom in.
whether it's good or not isn't up for me to say though. personally I don't really notice a difference.
You have more videos this phone than any other channel I've seen, I'm an iPhone user and have been since they came out, but I gotta say this phone is awesome!! In my opinion it's gonna give the iPhone a run for it's money
DOES THIS HAVE ADOBE BUILT IN

Opera turbo is the for the slow networks as GPRS/EDGE or slow wireless, in other hand it should be even slower then regular load.
tramvaj12 1 year ago
I know this is an old video, but it should be noted on all these videos that you can start using the page before it is completely loaded.

"6 Sites, like Google Chrome`?"... WRONG!
Opera was FIRST with sites on the startpage!! Opera was also first with tabs in a browser...

It doesn't format oddly I believe. IMO it formates like this so you can zoom-in and read a text by just scrolling down, no need to scroll sideways.

I see the problem with this device is when you place it on table, is not steady like Diamond2 & Pro2. The reason is because og the camera on back.
Personally, I see this one of the disadvantages.
Other than that, the device is perfect.
