Opera heeft de release candidate van versie 12 van zijn gelijknamige webbrowser uitgebracht. Opera heeft browsers voor alle belangrijke computerplatforms en voor een groot aantal mobiele besturingssystemen. De browser biedt tabs, kan worden aangestuurd met mouse gestures, heeft een ingebakken downloadmanager en biedt bescherming tegen phishing en malware. Er kan met Opera niet alleen worden gesurft, maar ook gemaild; er is een ingebouwde bittorrentclient en er kan worden gechat via irc. De releasenotes voor deze versie kunnen hieronder worden gevonden.
