Opera 9.5 finally out of beta and available to download

June 12, 2008 in Browsers | Permalink

It seems like a year since we first put Opera 9.5 beta online and available to download, alongside the existing 9.2x. However, we really expected it to move quickly from beta to release stage, yet the beta testing has gone on for ages, with updates every week for months. However, Opera 9.5 is a major release, even though it may appear that it's only a minor version update since the previous 9.2 release.

The most obvious improvement is that Opera 9.5 is now far faster than the previous version and it now ships with an enhanced user-interface, so it's rather obvious you've installed the new version. Other highlights include a Quick Find feature so you can locate previous sites, pages and locations. Quick Link now enables you to use your Opera account to synchronise your bookmarks and other Opera data between different computers.
