Opera 10.60 for all platforms is now available for download

By | July 1st, 2010



Opera Software has announced the new 10.60 version of Opera Browser that is available for download for Windows, Linux, Mac and other Operating Platforms. According to company the JavaScript engine is further optimized and is over 50% faster than in Opera 10.50. Besides this, support for HTML5 and WebM video has been included.

There are tens of new and existing features in Opera 10.60, my all time best is the Opera Turbo which speeds up browsing on slow connections by compressing webpages before downloading them. Recently Opera has become popular among mobile platforms as well and remained one of the top downloaded app for iPhone. Opera for iPhone greatly reduces the bandwidth cost and gives at least  two times faster browsing than safari.  Opera 10.60 clearly beats Chrome, Firefox and Internet Explorer in benchmark results. Here is the PeaceKeeper benchmark for Opera 10.60 vs other browsers on my system:

System:

  • Intel Core i7 930 @ 2.80 GHz
  • RAM: 8 GB @ 1600 MHz
  • Nvidia GeForce GTX 470
  • Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit

    And the leapfrogging continues ;) The performance gains are great, although I guess IE8 really puts things into perspective. If you were to have a chart comparing the features of Opera to Internet Explorer, I imagine it would look something similar :p
