Opera alone has five options. Our different mobile browsers have slightly different features to fit the type of device you’re using, but they all carry Opera’s compression technology. Compressing mobile data means you can get faster internet access even in bad network conditions. Also, when you save mobile data, it means you can also avoid any nasty shocks on your phone bill.
