The Norwegian browser will never be the same devices mobile.La desktop version is currently not affected by this revolution, but how long resist?

The Opera browser completely revolutionized: Webkit, extreme gesture and simplified interface

In the mobile browser one of the most appreciated and used by the users is no doubt Opera, in its two versions Mobile and Mini.

The browser is always among the most downloaded on both iOS than on Android, proof that the mobile version is performed beautifully on mobile platforms.

But in the latest versions of the browser something is "stuck" browser slow to open, many problems with the sites (even the most well known), and high consumption of RAM (Mobile version goes beyond 130MB, which on smartphones are a 'enormity).

Not to mention the missing functionality (such as extensions) always demands a loud voice users loyal to Opera.

All these problems have led to the highest levels of the Norwegian step "heavy", those able to change the foundations of a browser is abandoned historic Presto rendering engine to switch to the famous, fast and compatible with WebKit.

We start from the words of CEO Lars Boilesen about the performance of Opera Mini:

"Opera Mini is great, but it is not a fully-fledged offering like Chrome or Safari. There are too many sites it does not work with. We need to focus on getting products out strong on iOS and Android. These are the two leading platforms we will focus on ... They are the ones phones are being sold for "

"Opera Mini is very good, but does not allow a complete experience on a par with Chrome or Safari. There are too many sites that Opera Mini simply does not work. We must try to have the most competitive products on Android and iOs. These are the platforms on which we will focus more ... and it is thanks to these two operating systems that smartphones are sold. "

Hence the birth of Opera Ice, a modified version of Opera Mobile and magazine exploitive motere the new WebKit rendering.

Farewell buttons and menu: everything will be streamlined with gesture and edge for a mobile experience completamete flexible.

The old Opera will still be supported (at least for now), but from February on the company's efforts will focus exclusively on the new version, which promises to be incredibly faster and more responsive than the older Opera and direct competition (IE Mobile, Chrome, Firefox Mobile and Dolphin).

It is hoped that this revolution can carry even the much-needed extensions and many features found on the mobile browser for a long time competitors.

For the moment, no voice betrays the Desktop version, "saved" by this revolution, but it's probably only a matter of time.

If Opera Ice will have the expected success of mobile devices, the transition to a version of "Ice Desktop" with less functionality but greater responsiveness / upload speeds could finally break through between that user tired of Firefox but still not completely convinced the goodness of Google Chrome.

A cross-platform browser, finally able to open all the pages without too much trouble incompatible (or problems) with Opera and with all the "minimal" demands from a modern browser.

It only remains to see the reaction of historical users of Opera has always been very combative on the advanced capabilities of the browser, true champions of its high configuration items and their strengths / weaknesses.

Opera will displease or all users will move away from the old to embrace the new, less demanding but in search of extreme immediacy?
