      The latest update makes the browser slower at the speed dials. The sync option is gone at the start page. Please return the sync button and remove the search button replacing it. The search button is redundant anyway as we can just type at the address bar for search. Why remove the sync option? I want to have option of retrieving different bookmarks history.
      Please consider this change as previous ui is faster for sync. Thanks for the consideration.

          I mean at this page, the middle monitor like icon is replaced with search button aka changed ui. I wish the sync button is returned to the previous position.

            @jf19 By the way, I have reverted to older version to regain such access.

              This is the key that I was referring to.

                  At least here, that button has always been a shortcut to start page or to search depending on what page you are.

                    I don't know about your phone, but my browser has shown only search icon not the sync. You can see the screenshot as proof.

                      @leocg This is the latest android update of opera mini, version 39+ if recalled correctly.

                        Ah, Opera Mini. I was checking at Opera for Android.

                        Well, after have logged in to sync in Opera Mini, I could see the synced speed dials icon on the start page.

                          Why move the icon here? Is not the previous place good? Let's say someone has many speed dials, wouldn't that person has to scroll down the page to find it.
                          Instead of that, why not return the sync to the previous position. It's convenient,fast,and easy to find. This ui is not friendly. Furthermore, the search button is redundant as you can do search at the address bar, a waste of slot in my opinion.

                            Yep, maybe it could be on the top left.

                              @leocg I believe we have mutual understanding now. So, may I ask you to forward this issue to the developer and change the ui? Thanks in advance.

                                People from Opera read the forum and all requests and suggestions are taking in consideration.
