New improvements, explained in detail below, are the Contoured Mask Frame, Anatomically Shaped Pillows, and a Redesigned Headgear.
Here are the highlights of the Opus 360 Nasal Pillows CPAP Mask.

New - Contoured Mask Frame Three dimensional support architecture allows the Contoured Mask Frame to conform naturally to your face which enhances comfort and fit while also providing dependable support. The narrow design permits side-sleeping without the mask being pushed out of place.
Soft-Lip Cushion Providing more in the area of comfort the Silicone Seal is soft on the nose and quite supple where it touches the upper lip. The built-in Soft-Lip Cushion actually conforms to the shape of the upper lip naturally for the utmost in comfort.
Premium Frosted Silicone Seal The seals have a soft, smooth feel and are easy to slide into position while their frosted texture optimizes the mask seal.
Tube Anchoring System You may anchor the tube at the top, side, or leave it free to track. Elegant in design and simplicity, it firmly holds the tube in the desired position and provides stability keeping the mask in place. Alternatively, leave the tube unanchored and the ball and socket joint really comes into play allowing true 360° of freedom.

CPAP.com Comments
Several users who participated in Product Challenge Ten: Opus vs Swift LT, suggested using Mask Strap Pads over the Opus headgear.
The only parts that are interchangeable between the old Original Opus Nasal Pillow CPAP Mask and the new Opus 360 Nasal Pillow CPAP Mask are the actual nasal pillows themselves. The new headgear, tubing and swivel are not interchangeable.
As of December 5th 2008, Fisher and Paykel has made a few improvements to the design of the Opus 360 Nasal Pillow Mask.
Soft foam pads have been added to the mask frame to add better cushioning
Silicone pillows are now designed with a contour shape that keeps the Silicone Seal off the upper lip
Orientation arrows are added to the mask frame to help with mask reassembly
An updated Fitting Guide with simple fitting instructions has been added

"I am in love with this mask! It is working out really well for my as far as a nasal mask goes. Comfortable and easy to put on. No more standing in front of the mirror to get it on. Slips on easily and stays sealed for most of the time. Nothing is perfect, but this is pretty darn close!
Service was great as always!"

"I have been using the Opus 360 for a couple of years now since one of techs I know recommended it. I had tried several but this one really works well for me. It is light weight, a minimum of straps and gadgets."

Opus 360 switching from Swift II

"Have been using Swift II for sometime. As Resmed has banned selling of Swift II to outside US, I have to look for alternative.
I find Opus 360 is much more flexible with the tubing can be tie in front or face side. Less parts compare to Swift II, making it simple to dissembled and cleaning. Minor complain, noisier compare to Swift II.
It just fit my head perfectly, since the head gear very similar Swift II. Opus 360 is lower price than Swift II making it much more economical. Recommended for Swift II users."
ONLY ONE FOR ME!!!

"I have tried several other nasal pillow masks and this one is the most comfortable for me. It seals off good without leaks. I leave the hose loose and I can move from side to side and on my back. I have a very bad back and this mask lets me flip and turn in any direction I need to."
