Fast and cost-efficient Opera boasts that it has over 50 million users worldwide and it also notes that its “easy-to-use interface offers a desktop-like web browsing experience on a mobile phone.” Other features Mini 5 offers include Speed Dial, tabbed browsing, password manager and bookmarks. “Android users should not have to compromise when it comes to surfing the web on their phones.” Says Dag Olav Norem, Vice President of Products, Opera Software
