Opera Mini is the version Opera have released to make mobile browsing the fastest, lightest experience possible, saving you money in the process, especially if you pay for your mobile internet as you go. It does this by shrinking webpages down to a tenth of their size before sending them, which obviously makes for a much smaller, quicker experience.
Although Opera Mobile and Mini are on very different version numbers, this update has brought the same changes to both. They've made improvements to make scrolling and zooming much smoother, something that really enhances mobile browsing. Added to this is new pinch-to-zoom functionality, something that users of other browsers missed when using Opera.
They've also added a Twitter, Facebook and blogging share button, which is pretty essential for anyone with even a passing interest in social browsing. Finally, for all you lucky tablet users, Opera Mini and Mobile have also been optimized for tablet use. Opera isn't shy when it comes to mobile platforms, so there are quite a few to choose from. Have a look here to make sure you get the perfect one for you.
