I have an HTC Desire and use its stock browser for most things. When I’m out of 3G coverage area, I switch to GSM and use Opera, as it is so much faster. Don’t expect the full internet from Opera Mini. Notice the word Mini. Opera Mini is not comparable to Safari or stock Android browser. Opera Mobile is. That is not currently available on either Android or iPhone, unfortunately.

The unique selling point (oxymoron, I know. Opera Mini is free) of Opera Mini is that it reduces data consumption and provides fast internet browsing on slow data connections while rendering web pages almost exactly as publishers intended them.

Don’t set your expectations too high for the little guy. It does brilliantly the job it has set out to do.

If things continue this way it will be abandoned soon.

But i find it useless in an iPhone, since safari delivers an excellent browsing experience. Its fast and no glitches.

It’s fast though that’s for sure. Still prefer Safari.
