Recently the new, 4.1 Beta version of one of the most well-known mobile Internet Browsers - Opera Mini has been released...
The new release is fantastic. Those features which were presented in the new version, take Opera Mini to the new level despite being a Beta version at the moment :)
As I've already noted, the new release of the Opera Mini includes quite many new features, which make web surfing much easier and comfortable, like automatic completion of Web addresses, attaching files to Web-based email, uploading photos to your blog or other sites, downloading attachments from email for storage on your phone, saving and viewing pages offline, etc.
One of the my favorite features in the new Opera Mini is that, from now on, we don't need to open editor mode for entering web address. The new Opera Mini has new address bar as on desktop browsers. We just need to click on the address bar and locally enter new web address. It also supports automatic completion of web addresses, which makes surfing very comfortable... Except of the dashboard, new address bar is also available in the surfing mode. When you are surfing, just open "Menu", choose "Enter Address" and the new address bar appears on the top of the screen :)
Next novelty is availability of the downloading and uploading files. On phones with JSR-75, we can now upload and download files without being re-routed to the phone’s native browser. We are now able to update blogs while on the go. Upload photos to web sites or social networks and one of the most important features in my opinion, from now on we are able to add attachments to Web-based email and download other non media-rich content to the phone using new Opera Mini.
The next great feature I think is the availability of the saving web pages for viewing it in offline mode. It's very comfortable when we cannot get network reception. (Depending on your phone, you may need to choose a destination folder for storing pages for offline viewing.)
New Opera Mini also lets us search for text within a Web page so we can get to the information we need even quicker than before.
So I guess with this new version, we've got absolutely new and much more powerful browser, which is not only for smartphones :)
As usual Opera Mini is free and if you want to try the new version, you need to go here to download it (Please note that it's only Beta version!!!)
