New version of Opera for Android with UI overhaul

I tried the new beta for android.
I liked some but.. the stable version has the classic layout which allows to operate with two fingers as all the main features are bottom left or bottom right. I hope to see in the new version because it is a real killer feature having everything on the bottom. and, by the way, can you change the 3 dots with the O of opera? it is the very distintictive signature of this browser . 3 dots are very chrome, but opera deserves better visibility. -

A "night mode" similar to Opera Mini would be much appreciated. :whistle:

Updated to Opera Beta 37.1.2192.108355 from apkmirror.
Biiig app. 121 MB in total, 41.5 memory plus 78 on sd card.
Totally blocking up my 1GB system. Not nice, as the latest Whatsapp beta update refused to install due to memory problems.
This will not fly with many users on last-gen or budget phones, I'm afraid.

New beta build 108734 with the following changes:
- Download selector
- Tablet mode selector in settings
- Tablet back/forward buttons
- News region/language switcher
Still minimizing when accessing sync.
Can't choose external SD card folder in order to download stuff there, despite changelog.
Tapping on folders seems to be working now.
Still on Chromium 50.
The same usual countries with dozens others in Europe still missing. -

Beta 37.2.2192.108734 Android 5.1 Verizon Ellipsis 10 tablet in tablet mode
Problems & Inconsistencies Still Existing:
Clicking Home (Speed Dial) from Bookmarks causes tabs to disappear. They are still there and reappear with Open New Tab.
Clicking a Speed Dial icon opens a new tab before existing tabs; otherwise new tabs open after existing tabs.

jonaballen last edited by@xirit32 for some reason adding youtube search on mobile site doesn't work,.
But if you go to desktop version of youtube and long tap search field and add it as search engine. it will work in both desktop and mobile version.
If you select to go to the desktop version from youtube link it will set a cookie to continue go to desktop site. just go to the mobile version again if you want use that version going forward. the youtube search engine will work regardless. -
avmon last edited byI upgraded today to version 37.2.2192.108735 and I quickly changed to Tablet layout because I do not like the new Mobile layout but I've found that I can not get rid of the annoying bottom bar. Why it can't be disabled?
And now when I switch to another tab, the pages are reloaded more frequently than before. This is quite disappointing.

I had this same problem. You need to switch back to Phone layout, then unselect the "Full Screen" setting. Then you can switch back to Tablet layout, and the bottom bar should be gone.
I'm assuming it is a bug.

I'm assuming it is a bug.The trick seems to work. Thank you.
Opera should check these things before launching a new version.

I'm liking the improvements from the first beta release of this new design. Still not favoured over the old layout though. But if we're moving forward, gotta do the best with it... :|
One suggestion. As a right handed person, I'd prefer having the tab close 'x' on the right side of the tab for easy reaching.
As an extended thought, I wondered at the possibility to provide an option to choose left or right handed to switch the x and also maybe flip the entire top menu and place the 3dot, profile & new tab buttons to the other side of the screen....just a thought.

can we create folders for 'Saved Page'? i got a loads of articles to read offline, but somehow, quite difficult to find because i got too many saved pages. don't blame me, blame my internet service provider.

this might have to go into mini and desktop versions as well, to allow syncing.
if you open a thread about this issue in the 'suggestions' subforum, i'll second your motion.

Could you please implement dark theme option to set as default? It may look like incognito mode. Current default theme is too bright! It burns eyes...
Btw.
When I open a new tab I would like the Speed Dial to be displayed. Using home button seems a bit counter-intuitive. -

There may be a new security exploit that affects this beta. While doing a Google search, something added an icon to my Speed Dial entitled Breaking News. The icon ponted to the URL below.

Um,,I haven't got any updates since June. Funny enough, my friend's opera updated a while ago, and I'm still with the old version (37). The playstore shows the screenshots and info for the new version. However. When I scroll down to the bottom, it says version 37 updated on June 15.-) I'm on S7 Edge.
