Opera Mini 6 and Opera Mobile 11 tomorrow

March 21, 2011 · by Espen André Øverdahl

Tomorrow (Tuesday March 22) we will release two major updates for your mobile phone: Opera Mini 6 and Opera Mobile 11.

Cool! So, what's the difference between Opera Mini and Opera Mobile?

Excellent question. It's sorta like this:

The difference between Opera Mini and Opera Mobile

Opera Mini sends the website to our server first, then we make the website smaller (tenth of its original size) before returning it back to your phone. The data transfer is now smaller (we compressed the website), so it will load faster and cut the price you pay (since it's less data)!

Opera Mobile is a powerful Internet browser for mobile devices. Opera Mobile is using the phones’ hardware to download and display websites. If rates and speed is not an issue, and you want a similar experience on your mobile phone as when surfing the Internet on a normal computer, then Opera Mobile is the way to go.

We hope you are ready for Opera Mini 6 and Opera Mobile 11 tomorrow. Get ready to upgrade!
