Opera Mini 7 for Android Released

Opera Mini web browser for Android version 7 is released today, it is available in the Google Play store (earlier Android Market). Opera Mini currently has over 160 million users all over the world. The Opera Mini 7 claims to provide faster browsing and makes panning around sites smoother, thanks to the newly added OpenGLES hardware acceleration. The number of Speed Dial buttons on the browser home screen is now unlimited.

The browser now has the Exit button, the absence of which has been annoying me. Opera Mini reduces data costs by up to 90% with a unique compression technology.

Opera Mini 7 now provides better Tab management. The browser now provides user interface for searching for text within a page (Find-in-page UI). The latest version supports RTL (right-to-left) text support in UI for Arabic and Hebrew. You may also check out Opera Mobile, the premium experience when on Wi-Fi or wireless broadband. Wondering what is the difference between Opera Mini and Opera Mobile?
