Opera Mini and Opera Mobile updated for all devices

November 2, 2011 · by Espen André Øverdahl

Mobile & Tablets

Opera Mini version 6.5 is now available for iOS, S60, J2ME and BlackBerry. Opera Mobile version 11.5 is now available for S60 owners. MeeGo users get a special Opera Labs edition to play around with.

The new feature included in all versions is Data Usage view. This allows you to see how much data you have saved by using Opera on your phone. A counter on www.opera.com shows the combined amount of Internet data saved by millions of Opera Mini and Opera Mobile users. If you want to see how much you have saved, go to Help » Data Usage.

Another new feature is a star button in the URL field. This allows you to bookmark a website instantly. Click the star, and the website is saved.

Opera Mobile comes with improved Opera Turbo and additional video support.

MeeGo is supported through an Opera Labs build. Check out Opera Labs for more information.

    Are data usage view and the bookmark star the only new features/changes for Opera Mini (for iOS i.e.), or there there a more detailed changelog?
  • Michał JakubowskiWednesday, November 2, 2011 8:56:36 AM

    I see only Opera Mini 6.0.1 in the iOS App Store ...
  • Jens Christian Gammelby JensenWednesday, November 2, 2011 9:08:29 AM

    Any chance you could tweak a version into working on WebOS, sadly I can't get Opera on my smartphone...

    "MeeGo is supported through an Opera Labs build."

    Do you plan to release the final version or you are just testing whether MeeGo can satisfy the needs of Opera Mobile?

    Also, when Opera announced WebGL and HWA in February for it's desktop browser - it also said in the announcement -

    "... This means we can also use fully hardware accelerated draw operations on Windows XP, Linux, Mac OS X and OpenGL ES 2 capable devices such as recent smart-phones and web-enabled TVs..................."

    (You might have already understood why I highlighted "recent smart-phones")

    So does that mean Opera Mobile 12.00 or 12.50 will bring full HWA to new Android smart-phones?

    So does that mean Opera Mobile 12.00 or 12.50 will bring full HWA to new Android phones, making Opera the first browser to accelerate content on a smart-phone?


    I've heard IE9 on WP7 devices is HWA...

    Oh yeah! Just forgot about the tiny fraction of WP7 users which are switching to Android day by day. Edited my comment. Thanks.

    I thought Android was already hardware accelerated...
  • D1sasterp1eceWednesday, November 2, 2011 6:08:46 PM

    I've got a Nokia E51 (an S60v3 device). What are the proper ways to upgrade Opera Mini and Mobile? I'm asking this, because some previous updates wiped my bookmarks, Speed Dial etc. I don't want this to happen again.
  • Nicky LakyWednesday, November 2, 2011 6:29:35 PM

    ...aaarrrrrrrrggggghhhhh...
    ...yeeeeeesssss yes yes yes yeeeeeesss....
    ...finally...we all s60 users can have a taste of the new opera mini 6.5 opera mobile 11.5...
  • Brian Francis PretoriusWednesday, November 2, 2011 6:31:38 PM

    I've downloaded the 6.5 to upgrade from the 6.1 version and it seems not to be working as smoothly. Pressing a button to get an action, there is a time gap, then it jumps to the action. Sometimes going too far, or missing. The device is a Nokia N70 phone.
  • Nicky LakyWednesday, November 2, 2011 7:42:14 PM

    ...wait, why didn't i see any shiny star button...
    ...where is it placed anyway...
    ...i'm using nokia e71 btw...
  • iim xehedThursday, November 3, 2011 7:53:38 AM

    why, there is nothing star button in my opera mini v6.5?
  • Lewis EkwegbaliThursday, November 3, 2011 8:23:37 AM

    Honestly, there's no major difference between opera 6.1 and 6.5 for java users. Opera team, you guys are doing a great job but please overwhelm us with a much more ''updated'' version.
  • deson5Thursday, November 3, 2011 9:03:42 AM

    excellent, I'm now waiting for opera12.
    anyway , no mango?
  • SoumitraThursday, November 3, 2011 11:57:38 AM

    Opera Mini 6.5.1 Android is working perfectly with my LG P500.:party::up:
  • WalgermoThursday, November 3, 2011 2:10:16 PM
