    Just downloaded Opera Mini for iPhone, and it's much faster than iPhone Safari

    Just tested it out on a few sites I visit regularly on iPhone Safari, and Opera Mini got the job done significantly faster.

    I'll be using it from now on...

    tried it and didn't care for it. I love the Perfect Browser app. Best iphone browser yet. Fast, with real tab browsing, full screen mode. Check it out.

        I have 4.2 on my shitty LG 630. Works better than the builtin shitpile, but the through-opera-transcoding crap drives me nuts. Plus, it often crashes with 'NO RAM LOL' despite having MIDP 2.0 and more than enough RAM to load a fucking 32k image.

        Fuck Opera and a big fuck you to Skype for discontinuing Skype Lite. I want my $8 back that remains.

            Yeah I will check that out...

            To everyone else, I only tried it on a handful of sites. Maybe I will have the same opinion as you if I do some more testing here.

                Perfect browser is the shit... The friggen hyperscroll bar makes it. No more 900 swipes to get to the bottom of a long ass page. Plus the in page search. The ability to hide every friggen ui element. All good stuff. Fuck opera.

                  Everything I've been reading about Opera for the iPhone points to... suck. Haven't tried it myself yet though... but I do like desktop Opera

                    Some sites do not like right for me in the new Mini-Opera.

                        95% of those who are installing it remove it with 15 minutes.

                        Opera Mini is garbage. Opera mobile is where its at...but iPhone will never see it.

                        Spend you some brain.

                          Opera Mini needs a few patches.

                          Form submissions get lost, lot of sites don't render.

                          Safari has a real bug with the zoom, if it was one click and always worked
                          like Opera it would be a lot better. I fucking tap that thing all day.

                            Read the comments on any blog post regarding Opera Mini. It's exactly as I posted. Most people are downloading, using for a few minutes and them removing it from the system.

                            The Android version is the same crap.
