While new tab loads I see a quick empty fav icon transforming to sd icon.
Yeah, I noticed that also. -

@andrew84:
About flicker-buster:
the way this feature worked was to present screenshot of a start page, while waiting for the actual start page content to load. It worked well in case of fast compter where the color flash was annoying but short. But in the case of slow or heavily loaded machine it resulted in "seeing startpage but not being able to perform any actions" - thus very bad user experience. The advantage of the feature we are introducing Today, is loading startpage and making it usable instantly even on slow or heavily loaded machine.About navigating out of the start page:
we are definitely thinking about options here. To understand it, let me try to explain why the flash appears in the first place. In nutshell, this is how chromium works, navigation means switching to new render process for the page we are trying to load. Until the new renderer produces first picture, some static color is shown. There are different strategies for picking which color to show, but in the described case background color of the previous page / start page is shown. As first option, we can keep showing start page until new page loads, but this requires careful UX design as slow page load could be mistaken with start page slowly reacting to clicking on the tile. As second option we can show theme color instead of start page average background color as we do Today. This is what other browsers do and it doesn't look that bad. -

@wladek: Thank you for the explanation.
I can add that I'm using O58 currently and I don't see any colorful flashes while navigating out of the start page.
If this is some updated chromium's issue, I'd prefer to see a color that equals the color of the background of the page that is being opened (for this blog page it will be white flash, for Steam page it will be navy color flash, for dark themed youtube it will be dark gray and etc.) if it's technically possible. -

Printing dialog looks strange (too small window and option's text is also too small and unclear)

There's a problem with the downloads icon - it shows not immediately after browser restart, but after some time.
Look at this gif:

Can anyone confirm that? -

The quick access menu is gone.
Apparently they just decided to get rid of it, as recently it worked not correctly and they are tired of dealing with it and torturing users!

@temkem It worked fine here (there was some issues with portable Opera verson). The old dropdown was more functional, it had a choice of search engines at the bottom
The continue killing useful features instead of improving them. Better get rid of crypto wallets and other similar stuff. -

Scrolling with the mouse wheel in "Settings" does not work correctly, hangs.

I have this bug if the scale of the settings page is not 100%.

Here (on Win8x64) the zoom of Settings page doesn't matter, scrolling just stops working

@johnd78 I tried both 90 and 100 and 110, but the problem is still there.
This may depend on the system scale set to 125 while the screen resolution is 1680x1050
But on all previous versions of Opera there was no such problem -

It's very possible that this is the reason.
