[Utility] Opera Mini 5.1 for Android

Another news for Android user, if you use an Android smartphone a new browser from Opera is available for download on the Android market. The browser is Opera Mini 5.1. The new browser version has some new features that should make it appealing to many users.

Opera says that the new version is much faster for loading web pages thanks to the fact that it compresses data up to 90% before sending the content to the phone. That means faster page loads and less money spent on data. Since Opera Mini uses Opera's compression technology to shrink pages before they are sent to the phone, using Opera Mini will result in faster page loads -- especially when using slower 2G or crowded WiFi connections. And the smaller data bills aren't a bad thing either!

Opera 5.1 has left the beta tag behind, and its final release is a considerable Android alternative. Along with the off-phone page caching that makes slower connections bearable, Opera's added semi-solid pinch-to-zoom and kinetic scrolling, plus speed improvements.


Opera 5.1 final is a free download for Android phones, with a QR code offered at the link. Beta users should be able to upgrade from their Market app at the moment.
