BANGALORE, INIDA: Opera has come back with its latest web browser version 11.5, which is basically the upgrade of Opera 11.1. Featuring an improved UI, the new browser has come back with the speed dials, which they introduced in Opera web browser 4 only to discard it in successive upgrades.
The web page allows you to stack numerous speed dials at a time, where you can put your favourite websites for instant access, just like Chrome.
Turbo makes it faster
Accessing a website is quite fast and when you are running Opera Turbo, you can save up on the data consumed in rendering heavy websites that Turbo compresses. Google Chrome does have something of this sort and is called Google Web accelerator. But Opera does a better job, it supports HTML5 and so can run websites that are compatible with HTML5. Other factors which make Opera 11.5 faster is the use of hardware acceleration --processing is done through graphics card and not through CPU, since GPU is better at depicting graphics on a webpage than CPU.
Cleaner and user friendly browser
Opera 11.5 looks cleaner and lighter with very few buttons, including a hidden panel button on the left bottom that showcases your bookmarks, widgets, notes, history, etc. Click on the hidden panel button and a column of icons will appear. Adjacent to the panel button lies the buttons for Opera Turbo, Opera Unite and Opera Link.
When turbo mode is on, it shows before the address bar in blue colour. Click on it, and you will know how much data it saved while browsing. An interesting feature in the browser is the option to open a private tab alone, which you won't find in other browsers like Chrome 12 and Firefox 5. You can open more than twenty tabs at a time and works without any hiccups. The browser comes with tabs stacking feature where you can stack the tabs on either side of the webpage. Stacking on left or right side of the webpage looks more tidy and organized.
