OK geeks, list your favorite version and build!
I don't think thier is a Opera only thread here on PPCG.
9.5, 9.7, 10, Mini? Discussion in another thread made me curious as to what everyone is using on thier TP2.
What's your pleasure?

I used to use Opera 9.7 but i've recently switched to Opera 10 as I love the smooth interface and scrolling. Although I miss the zoombar sometimes and the app takes a while to load more than 9.7 but its tolerable.

i dont see how anyone could use v10 over 9.7 it takes up too much ram and it takes up the entire screen with no minimize option by the way which is included in v9.7.

to minimize i just press the end call button and it works, and RAM has no issues for me as I have 100+MB on the ROM i'm currently running

id prefer not to press that all the time every time i have to check a text message etc, wear out the buttons. i rarely ever press them and besides they couldve put minimize in the exit dialog like they did on 9.7 and they didnt do that. they also removed the ability to switch between mobile and desktop mode which hasnt been present since 8.6x.

I use opera 10. I miss the zoombar too. @eric, opera 10 does have mobile/desktop view. its in the settings

that mobile switch doesnt do anything. its not as effective as the one in IE is and its also not as effective like it was back in 8.65 either

mini for me...its the fastest and has the smoothest scroll...this device is getting slower and slower...i'll take anything that works smooth

Thanks for the replies.

I can't believe I didn't find that thread.

I kinda like 10 but I haven't figured out how to copy and paste links. I can do it easily with 9.5 & 9.7.
Still testing though.
