Opera Turbo Released for Testing

Opera Turbo is a new server-side optimization and compression technology that provides significant improvements in browsing speeds over limited-bandwidth connections by compressing network traffic. This does not only make you surf faster, but also lowers the cost of browsing when you are on a pay per usage plan.

Today Opera team has released a preview version of Opera 10 which contains this new "Opera Turbo" technology. When turned on, Opera Turbo will display the average compression rate. Hover your mouse over the Opera Turbo icon to see a tooltip with the amount of bandwidth saved as long as it has been enabled.

Please note that its an Alpha version and you should only use it for testing purposes.

You can download it using following links:

Opera Turbo for Windows

Opera Turbo for Mac OS X

Opera Turbo for Unix/Linux

  • How come images are rendered so horribly? They look really pixelated.
    Am I missing some software or is it because it's just in testing phase?

    ^^ Thats how this new Opera turbo works. It downloads compressed images and shows the low quality version of images to save bandwidth and loading time.

  • Thanks for this keeping us updated on Opera.My browsing speed has tremendously increased.Let the images be of low quality but they get cleared after some time.It's far better than Safari 4.

  • when i installed it,
    kaspersky put that software in 'untrusted' and denied access.

  • It seems like it works like Opera Mini?

    ^^ Click on the clock icon in the left side of statusbar and it'll disable the Turbo feature. In that way you'll get the better quality images.

  • I think this will be the best browser.
    Thanks for the info. :)
