@styen Thanks for this solution. I almost uninstalled Opera because of the video issue. Now it's working fine. The only thing is that I couldn't install opera-stable via apt, so I downloaded the latest deb installer from Opera homepage. The Linux Mint repo must be lacking opera-stable

Saving a file issue:

The beta version doesn't allow you to save a file to a specified location on the device yet. This is something I very much miss from the official release. I remember that Opera Mobile would prompt for write permission to external sdcard on Android 6. The beta is not concerned with write permissions to external sdcard because it only writes to the internal storage default Downloads folder.

BTW, thanks for the forward button on main toolbar. As mrninko has mentioned in a previous comment, the forward button appears active even when a page has no forward history. That needs to be fixed.

One more thing about button layout. I find that the user button bottom right is OK, but I find it uncomfortable that the tab buttons, offline, bookmarks, history, and downloads, are at the top, since you have to stretch the thumb to the top of the screen to make a selection, while all other typing happens at the bottom of the screen. Please add an option to place these tab buttons at the bottom, or simply place them there.

I'm trying out this version for the first time today. I love the new look. The simplified button design is far better than the previous set

What I like so far is:
No more data savings meter. It's great to save data, but this a web browser, not a racing car, or a benchmarking tool or whatever. The toggle switch view is enough and that's that.

What I don't like so far is:
There is no forward button. It will lead to an early uninstall, and never return, for me, unless this is reconcidered. Who's idea is it that you don't really need a forward skip button in your web browser? It is essential. You have to put it in, no choice. On the other hand, the share button which is in the position of the forward button, MUST GO! Sharing (a web page?) in a mobile browser is not paramount. This button must go back into the opera menu.

The user button has to be at the top and the three dot button (or Opera button) has to come down below. It just makes more sense that way.

Granted this is a beta release, but shouldn't a browser designer "know" where the buttons should sit in the UI? This design is quirky in the extreme. The user button leads to frustration, not intuitive access. It doesn't emediately make sense, presupposes a new learning curve and a getting used to. The previous design may be old fashioned,but it is more practical. To use a car metaphor, which is what Opera so loves.. Would you buy a car that has the steering wheel in the back seat?
