Beta 41.0.2246.110333 Android 5.1 Verizon Ellisis 10 tablet in Tablet mode
Problem that still exist from previous beta:
Youtube audio no longer plays in background.
Login to Opera forum doesn't redirect to original page.
Mobile page for Hotmail web site (https://outlook.live.com/owa/) is displayed even though Desktop is checked in Settings. Stable Opera, as well as Chrome, Firefox, and Firefox Beta all display Desktop page in such cases. This is a problem because some Hotmail features are unavailable with Mobile page.

I like the tab closer on the left. Lets you close a tab without activating it when you have a lot of tabs (probably why Opera made the change).

BIG bug: why search on page function distinguishes between capital and not-capital letters. It makes no sense. When I'm looking for I don't care if words contain capital letters or not, and many times I do not know exactly. Could you fix it?

https://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/624539 I can't access this URL with Opera 37. Same thing with opera v41? Opera 28 works and latest Canary throw an warning about credentials before page access running Android 4.3 unencrypted (no password or pin). Link found on http://www.opera.com/blogs/mobile/2016/11/opera-max-privacy-mode-filters-just-got-upgraded/

Well, latest Opera Beta works on my device now (sub110333 without the whole install animated process) but is awful! Rolling out a new UI, are you kidding? That's another product! It's like I'm back to square one as it was in Opera 14 only that now this browser doesn't resemble WebKit, it's more like a fragment of what it was.

@operamilleson another nice glitch
There's issue with (responsible) page rendering. I have set my mobile phone as a desktop in Opera settings. If "saving data" is off page is loaded in it's responsible way to fit the screen. But if you turn "saving data" on page is loaded like in desktop. Here's video about it: https://youtu.be/LmlGGs8AUaM
It's not happening with one page (androidpolice.com) only but almost every responsible pages I've visited. Could you fix it. I think it should act only one way, not two. -

Here's a little issue: The interface is complete trash, no opera button, worse contrast (instead of black, there is a grey bar onto which the tab ears are overlayed), the goddamn vertical [...], everything is different.
Grey text over grey buttons over grey background: this hurts my eyes. The ergonomy is nonexistent here!
Why can't those who like the v37 interface keep it? Also the new start page is useless, the way search works now is a mess.
Give me back my UI or fix yours, posthaste!
Another reason: I'm used to having my right thumb as the click the refresh button, and now I find it on the left! Why!? Why change this? Has anyone here heard of muscle memory? Why change that which works? Don't pretend that you ares some almighty all-knowing gods of design that know better than me what I (emphasis: I) want. The home button is unnecessary because if I want a startpage I whip out a new tab, less clutter that way.
Seriously, please, think this through. The Bust Button (shoulder n head) is good because I can finally access my supposedly saved pages (why can't I save them in HTML, again?), but this change is just... bad. I'd like to be positive, but I can't. My eyes hurt, the menus are bad, the contrast is nil.

Beta 41.0.2246.110204 Android 5.11 Verizon Ellipsis 10 Tablet in tablet mode
I posted this problem on November 18:
Another new problem. Mobile page for Hotmail web site (https://outlook.live.com/owa/) is displayed even though Desktop is checked in Settings. Stable Opera, as well as latest Chrome, Firefox, and Firefox Beta all display Desktop page in such cases. This is a problem because some Hotmail features are unavailable with Mobioe page.
End of originsl post.
By accident, I found a solution and am posting it in case it might help others. Append ?bo=1 to the URL above while in Desktop mode, and the desktop version is displayed.
As mentioned above, the problem occurs with Opera Beta, but not with Chrome, stable Opera, Firefox and Firefox Beta. Also does not occur with Chrome Beta, but DOES occur randomly with Naked Browser (free version). The fix works for both Opera Beta and Naked Browser.
I did a number of Google searches to try to find a definition of?bo=1 but had no luck.

Opera Beta 41.1.2246.111555 Android 5.1 Verizon Ellipsis 10 tablet in Tablet mode
This newest beta (released in Playstore today) kept giving me a blank screen until I uninstalled previous beta and did a clean re-install.
The Hotmail site problem I posted about on November 18 (and earlier today) still exists, but my fix still works.
Tabs opened through SpeedDial and Bookmarks now both open before existing tabs, so behavior is now consistent, even though different from stable Opera.
