Opera 11 came out recently and Firebox 4 is currently in a very advanced beta state, so it was time for a little browser competition.

Opera:
+ Save bookmarks directly to folder
+ Select search engine directly typing search phrase
+ Private tabs instead of private mode
+ Design slightly better
– Search in site feature a bit strange

Firefox:
+ Many more extensions!
+ Easier to customize
+ ICC color profiles
– No status bar any more

In the end, I like Opera more, it feels more finished and overall is easier to use, but not having color profiles is pretty much a deal breaker for me. I just hope I will be able to re-create most of Opera’s killer features with Firefox extensions.
