When I am in Google Play, I am unable to expand or open the windows that shows the larger picture of what the app looks like and also, when I try to install the app, I press the Install button and nothing happens.

I am having the same issue. Checked for Opera updates and one was available, updated to 53.0.2907.106 but issue persists. OS is Windows 10 v1803. The site works correctly in Edge browser. Issue persists whether or not logged in to Google, and signed in as different users on Windows.

Further, in the reviews section of an app's information page the summary (5 ratings bars) is displayed but the review texts aren't visible, only a continuously rotating "loading" circle.

It works if you change the user agent to Chrome's. This mean that the site is doing browser sniffing and you need to contact Google and ask them to fix it.

@leocg - Thanks

I can confirm this has worked for me using extension "User-Agent Switcher" 1.8.6.1 by esolutionsnordicab

Worked for me using the User-Agent Switching. Thanks for the suggestion!
