A more refined browser for a great web experience
Opera is known for bringing a first-class web experience to thousands of mobile phones, and our latest mobile browsers bring great enhancements that make Opera the best choice for thousands of devices.
The clean, simple and elegant user experience is now modernized and enhanced. Scrolling and zooming is buttery smooth, with support for the latest technology . Opera displays complete webpages, just like on your computer.
Switching between open webpages is a snap with tabs, and Speed Dial launches your favorite websites with a single click.
With Opera, you’ll navigate with ease on both touchscreen and keypad devices. The browser comfortably adjusts to your needs by switching between portrait and landscape mode and also lets you adjust the font size for easier reading.
High-performance browsing
The latest versions of the Opera Mini and Opera Mobile get an extra boost of speed and power. Even on sites with secure encryption or lots of graphics, pages load with a snap and scroll smoothly. You’ll also be able to play the next generation of games on your mobile device, thanks to WebGL hardware acceleration. Not only are the controls fast and responsive, but colors and textures are rich and true to life too. With Opera, you can have a premium web experience no matter what phone or mobile device you use.
Browse more, wait less
The Web has never been so fast on your phone. Opera’s streamlined rendering engine and server-side compression allows the Opera browser to load webpages much more quickly than other mobile phone browsers. Features such as the address bar, shortcut keys and touchscreen control save you time and effort when performing basic tasks, such as entering addresses or scrolling rapidly through pages.
User experience
Multitask with tabs
Keep several pages open at the same time and easily switch between them using tabs—just as you would on your desktop computer. Visual tabs even allow you to see a preview of the open pages you can select.
Smoothly scroll and pan
The user interface has been designed to be ultra smooth and efficient for modern touchscreens. A flick of the touchscreen will use kinetic scrolling to get to the part of the page you want with ease.
Read the largest pages comfortably
Even pages designed for large screens are easy to read on smaller tablets, with text wrapping. This ensures that you can read most content without having to scroll sideways. On supported devices, text will even wrap to fit your screen as you zoom into content.
Your view where you need it
When moving around large, complex webpages, the Opera browser will stop just where it needs to, snapping the view to the column you want to read.
Instant access to your favorite websites
See your top websites visually laid out on your screen in Speed Dial, and load each of them with a quick tap. It is easy to add your preferred pages to Speed Dial, and you even can synchronize them with your desktop or mobile phone, using Opera Link.
Pinch-to-zoom
On a tablet's touchscreen, you can use two fingers to adjust the size of the page you are viewing smoothly and precisely for the ideal perspective. Pinch your fingers together to shrink a page and see more of it, or spread your fingers apart to expand small text and make it easier to read.
Features
Your data, wherever you need it
Backup your bookmarks, Speed Dials, and search engines to My Opera, and keep them synchronized with phones or with the Opera browser on your desktop computers or laptops. With Opera Link, you can take your favorite Web sites with you wherever you go.
Manage your downloads
Opera's Downloads feature, built right in to the browser, lets you start downloading files and keep track of their progress from Downloads. You can pause downloads, when necessary and resume them when it is convenient.
Share the best of the Web
When you come across a page that you want to show to the world, just tap the “Share” icon from Opera's menu. Then choose from social networks such as Facebook, Twitter, vKontakte and more to share a link in a snap.
Go back in time
With Opera’s history feature, you can find pages you visited before. Visited pages in your history are grouped by date, so you can easily find a site by the day you have viewed it.
Read a page any time, from anywhere
When you find a page that you would like to keep, use Opera’s Save Page feature, and you can access it any time, without having to wait for it to download—even with no Internet connection.
Easy access to your bookmarks
Save, edit and organize bookmarks into folders. Sophisticated bookmark management lets you keep track of many sites. Enabling Opera Link can even keep bookmarks synchronized across the Opera installations on other devices, such as your computer, so you always have your links when you need them.
See what you are looking for
Finding what you are looking for in text-heavy pages on your tablet has never been as easy. As you type, the Opera browser finds your search term and highlights all occurrences in the page, allowing you to cycle through them.
Save money on data charges
The Opera browser is the smart choice for browsing on expensive wireless data plans. Using the Opera browser to browse the Web with your 3G enabled tablet can save you money when roaming or on per-megabyte data plans by substantially reducing your data usage.
