The most important feature, so far, of the upcoming Opera 53 web browser, appears to the implementation of a News section, which will appear under the Speed Dial if you give your consent. For now, the News feature will only be available to try out for users in the US, Russia, Belarus, and Ukraine. Most probably, more countries will be supported in the final release. Apart from the new News feature, the initial Opera 53 development release fixes multiple bugs and issues reported by users from previous versions of the web browser. Among these, Opera Software highlights an issue with the moving of bookmarks on Windows platforms, a crash that occurred when saving PDFs under Linux systems, and incorrect ordering of opened Speed Dial pages.
