Every four years, CODATA task group on fundamental constants presents the tables of recommended values of the fundamental physical constants. Recently CODATA-2010 recommended values, based on the world data up to December 31, 2010, were published. In my talk I review the new recommended values as well as new original data, on which the recommendation is based. Special attention is paid to experimental and theoretical progress in the determination of the Rydberg constant R, the electron-to-proton mass ratio me/mp, the fine structure constant α, the Planck constant h, the Boltzmann constant k, the gravitation constant G and the anomalous magnetic moment aμ.
