Opera may not rank in the top three browsers in the world — those happen to be Firefox, Google Chrome, and of course Internet Explorer — but the browser does have a sizable user base. In fact, I’m typing this right now using Opera on the PC.
Now, for the first time ever, Windows Phone users can partake in the Opera Software fun, so long as they don’t mind a few bugs and glitches (it is a beta release, after all).

A quick rundown of its features shows that it has some notable similarities with its desktop cousin:
- Browse faster: Content-heavy webpages with lots of images and graphics load faster. We make webpages lighter, so you can enjoy the fastest browser for your device.
- Save data: Opera Mini can reduce webpages down to 10% of their normal size. That saves you data, giving you faster, cheaper internet.
- Navigate easily: Bigger buttons and a clear layout make Opera Mini easier to use.
- Be social: Share your favorite content in a snap!
- Browse safely: Opera’s focus on security and data privacy, keeps you safer on the web.
Anyone who’s ever used the version available for Windows Mobile, BlackBerry, Android, or iOS should find Opera Mini for Windows Phone comfortably familiar, though it clearly has some modern UI based elements.
