Every smartphone needs to have a couple of essential apps in order for the user to take full advantage of the smartphone’s performances. The mobile browser is always one of the most essential apps for smartphones and even though Google is pre-installing Chrome on all Android-powered devices, this doesn’t mean that Chrome is always the ideal mobile browser. In fact, Chrome is infamous for using up too much hardware power which makes it inefficient when it comes to entry-level smartphones.
Fortunately, there are always many alternatives when it comes to mobile browsers and Opera Mini is one of them. This is a lightweight mobile browser which means that it weighs in at only 10MB. To make things even better, Opera Mini’s software has been optimized so that the mobile browser doesn’t use up as much mobile data as other browsers do.
