Product description

The Opera Mini web browser for Android lets you do everything you want to online without wasting your data plan. It’s a fast, safe mobile web browser that saves you tons of data, and lets you download videos from social media.

• Video download - A browser that supports video download. No time to watch videos? No problem. Tap the new download button and watch them when you're ready. (Doesn't work on YouTube videos, though – sorry!)

• Add to home screen - Add the sites you visit most to your mobile home screen with a single click.

Why Choose Opera Mini?

• Keep track of your data - You can check your savings in the settings menu and see how much data Opera Mini saves you.

• Multi-task - Keep lots of pages open at once with tabs.

• Browse privately - We all have pages we don’t want to remember visiting. If you don’t want something saved in your history, you can browse incognito with private tabs.

• Smarter downloads - Download files in the background and hold off downloading larger files until you’re back on Wi-Fi. Opera Mini will let you know as soon as your downloads are complete. Just click the notification to open your download – no more digging around in folders.

Other great stuff

• Save your favorite sites: Tap the + button on the search bar to save a page to your Speed Dial, add it to your mobile bookmarks or read it offline.

• Get the latest news: The start page keeps everything in one place. Choose the categories you’re interested in and Opera Mini will serve you the top stories and freshest content from across the web.

• Sync your devices: Give yourself access to all the bookmarks, Speed Dial shortcuts and open tabs from your other devices.

Moreover, the browser quality and ease of use are mixed, with some finding it great while others consider it terrible and not user-friendly. Additionally, customers report frequent crashes and consider it a waste of money.

    Works pretty good, haven't had any problems at all and it works really fast. You can even use it on the Fire Stick but you need a mouse to control it because the Fire Stick remote won't work for it.

    It's not resource hungry and the option to control the quality or presence of pictures is really great for reduce the use of mobile bandwidth. It's great for most news websites, AOL mail works just fine and Amazon works decently so far (I haven't attempted to purchase anything as of this review). The omw thing that I find disappointing is the inability to choose the default search engine. All together a great option for bare bones Internet browsing.

    I'm testing many browsers for android, since the terrible release of my long time favorite, Firefox. Opera and the Mini version, Brave, Vivaldi, and Samsung. Mini was not as good as the others. The rest have good and bad points, but none match up to older FF releases. I'm still looking for a keeper.

    Lovely browser, fast and unlike Mozilla actually plays Youtube vids so you don't need a special Youtube app on Android.
    Downside is that it lacks the Mozilla anti-ad plugins and has no way to switch to other default search engines and uses Google exclusively.
    The older Opera had that option. Also there is no "exit" or "shutdown" option which was available on the older Opera app.

    Leveza e rapidez são seus pontos fortes, quanto aos plug-ins ainda deixa um pouco a desejar, se comparado ao Chrome, por exemplo. Mais ainda assim é um ótimo navegador para smartphone.
