Thanks for finally coming to WP.
I'd preferred Opera Mobile over Opera Mini, but hey, it's a start.
Unlike many others the app doesn't crash at all for me. It runs pretty fast and reliably.I'll try and summarize what I think needs some refinement and improvement:
-
page loading times. These are definitely slower than what I was used to from Opera Mini on Windows Mobile and Android.
-
Adding a new search provider is too much of a hassle. This should be possible from the manage search providers page.
-
Speaking of search providers. I definitely want to be able to change my default search engine. And I'd like to be able to remove Google from this list completely.
-
Page rendering isn't too great yet. Some pages show the mobile view, some the desktop view. It should be up to the user to decide which view to choose as a setting. Works great for IE.
-
there should be a setting to set the default downloaded folder, to not have to move each and every download from the isolated storage to an SD card or other publically accessible folder permanently.

My very first impression on the beta version I have tested is unfortunately not that encouraging
since there are unexpectedly quite a lot of stability issues even for a beta version.Not only am I talking about lack of smoothness, but also as everyone reports too, the browser keeps on crashing, either in the beginning or while one is trying to access several websites .
I believe this issue will only take time to be fixed, so I won't insist on that.Another argument I have lies on the browser's User Interface.
It is ugly if you ask me, or at least it does not comply at all with the Windows Phone UI style rules.
I do get it that Opera needs to stay close to its own graphics interface,
but this result presented in its WP beta version is totally out of order.Being myself for a longtime an Opera - both PC and mobile version - browser user in the past,
even if I personally have been used to apprehend Opera browser's PC and mobile versions interface,
this time I find myself stressed to use Opera's graphics and interface in such a non compliant environment as WP one is.I think everything should be reassessed in this very first Opera WP version,
including the fonts size and type (Segoe fonts much preferred), the colors and their gradients, the styling of the tables as well as the icons implemented (shapes, colors etc in a wholly flat-needed minimal clean design) etc.
This does not necessarily derive in something irrelevant from Opera's appearance guidelines
but only an adaptation to the Windows Phone environment so that the user won't feel strange that much.I have to say I would expect more from what appears to be this Opera Mini WP beta version.
I strongly believe that the User Interface should be much more adapted to the Windows Phone appearance.
Please do mind. -

I'm on a Lumia 1020 with Cyan, 8.1 and update to 8.1.
I'm experiencing instant crashes as soon as I search or click on a link in the menu such as Google Search, and also many crashes as soon as opening the app.
It was working better in the initial release, even though searching often crashed and sometimes the browser didn't load anything (parsing error).
Happy to help any way I can!

I want to mention that app only works in English language. I had to change my region settings to USA to make it work. Hope you'll soon add more regional languages that support Opera Mini.
And of course, there are stuff that are missing from the Android version.
Like many people here, I hoped there will be similar UI design language as WP, but I'm ok with this anyway, same good ol' Opera Mini. I'm just glad that you actually made an app so needed for this platform and I thank you for that! P.S. I'll keep you p with the issues I'm experiencing. All the best to you guys!
