Opera 11.10 includes improved power saving features

opera 11.10 battery power
Just recently, the Opera 11.10 release candidate was made available for download. It brought a handful of important feature additions -- like HTML5 File API support and IMAP enhancements -- and loads of bugfixes. Nestled in amongst the other details in the Opera team's announcement is one more interesting tidbit: Opera 11.10 offers improved battery optimizations.

The timing here is certainly interesting, what with Microsoft's recent report on how much power the top five Web browsers consume. In its findings, Opera 11 was fairly low in the standings. While we've not seen any new benchmarks yet, we're curious to know whether the Opera 11.10 RC offers any significant gains.

If you're running Opera 11.10 on a laptop, let us know if you're seeing an improvement in your battery life while browsing!

  1. I've noticed that everyone talks about the great power saving feature. It disappoints me to know that not many people are aware of the standout feature known as Turbo Function, it allows us to speed up browsing on slower networks such dial up connections and 3G networks. This browser made many other changes as well (see: http://www.softwarecrew.com/2011/04/opera-11-10-released-boasts-faster-turbo-revamped-speed-dial/)
