Opera programmers can fix it, it started by redisgning of the User Interaction interface.
This is the last stutter free Opera from Opera itself. Version 3700
Verify that it's really Opera server don't install from other sources.
If Opera programmers would use that version as a start all over again point the new overhaul is the only thing to change and errors made or inefficient subroutines can be prevented.
I think the overhaul is mostly done in Dalvik/Art but even then sliding effect of bringing a menu in the screen should not bring my phone or tablet to its knees.
The core render engine is great and is I believe written in Native Development Kit.
That's why I define the Opera browser as 2 seperated programming paradigmas.
I continued using Opera 3700 and don't update the normal version, but every beta release I hope Opera has finally understood what they are missing compared to what Opera had.
Speculation is that Opera has a new development team with not enough experience in User Interaction Interfaces bridged to Native Development Code like the Blink engine core.
The current team is probably so used to microstutter and old Windows 98 animation effects they don't know any better anymore.
I turn into Steve Jobs when I am hungry.
Steve Jobs wouldn't have allowed this and would be very angry. I read Steve Jobs book and he was in language a vulgair man like Mozart but his products were not. Steve Jobs is no longer and me spitting out some language like him wouldn't change Opera development since I have no power and am a customer only.
Sorry, Opera Team you don't know any better anymore, you're used to slow, buggy, and stutter even on high end devices so much.
I turn into Steve Jobs when I am hungry and want to scream! #*#$^&/&^

When adblock will work without data saving mode enabled? It's block almost nothing. And more - if I don'want to use data saving, I also can't use adblock.
I also don't like exit option - I must tap 3 times on 3 buttons for exit and this is stupid! -

... and when the next update comes along, please make it a thorough and complete reversal of all the current UI disasters.

Hi guys not very technically minded so go easy on me please.Have a Samsung Galaxy Ace using Opera Mini 4.2 I think and using Sky as service provider.When accessing certain gambling websites they refuse to let me sign in properly saying You are trying to access from a prohibited country.Is this because the IP address Opera are using is from abroad or will it be my service provider I need to speak to.It doesn't happen every time but at least twice a day.Very annoying!Can I change my IP address?Thanks,Mike from Belfast,United Kingdom

Opera pages jump around all overthe place. NO idea what this is for... Android support for extensions appears to be lacking.

Why is opera mini updated so often and opera not?? It's over month without fixes and new features!!

update frequency is the one metric for google playstore's rankings that manufacturers can actively control.
so more mini updates equals a somewhat better ranking, despite running on the same 2254 codebase for ages.
meanwhile opera for android is like watching a trainwreck.

I guess it's time to start use another browser while there's such "unique" update support...

There is still a problem with synchronization of data, as soon as you use encryption for your data:
in opera web you can enter two passwords:
- one for your account and
- one to encrypt your synchronized data
current problem with opera mobile is:
- as soon as you encrypt your synchronized data on web, opera mobile does no longer synchronize any data any longer
** reason is probably cause it is not possible to provide the password for the encryption on opera mobile, so it would be good if opera mobile devs would add this

Really Now. I just downloaded opera beta. I don't understand what opera is doing. My advice is to go back to the old classic layout that was discontinued, add the ad-blocking and you are done.
Edit: And add something useful like a scroll bar instead of playing around with barely visible icons and the like.
