Mobile Opera browser - news & search

I haven't been happy with my choices of mobile browsers for a while now, the ones i have used regularly are Google Chrome and Firefox.

My annoyances are, Chrome doesn't have a speed dial where i can lock in certain bookmarks and doesn't have a dedicated adblocker and Firefox is still slow and sluggish for me at rendering pages compared to Chrome for Android.

So i am giving Opera Browser - news and search a go and so far it is all very promising, superfast at webpage rendering has a built in adblocker and a proper speed dial that i can set.

Has anyone else tried Opera on Mobile lately or got any issues with it that i haven't spotted yet?

Re: Mobile Opera browser - news & search

I think Opera just became a Chrome clone a long time ago. I was an avid user because of its small size, speed and inbuilt email client, but the new versions disappointed badly.

I still use Opera 9.25 for the ability to easily extract files from its cache and it's email client.

Re: Mobile Opera browser - news & search

Why do you need an inbuilt client when on mobile there are loads of better clients like gmail, outlook etc?

Re: Mobile Opera browser - news & search

Still using this browser on my phone, it is so much faster then anything else i have used with the added benefits of a built in ad blocker and speed dial.

I can recommend it and advise you guys to give it a try.
