Opera Mini 5 beta for Android available for download

Opera Software has launched the newest beta version of the Opera Mini 5, on the Android platform.

Opera Mini, with more than 50 million users worldwide, enables Web browsing on almost any handset by compressing data by up to 90 percent before sending content to the phone, resulting in significantly improved page loading and speed. With a simple, easy-to-use interface, Opera Mini offers a desktop-like Web browsing experience on a mobile phone, with favorite features such as Speed Dial, tabbed browsing, password manager and bookmarks. With Opera Mini optimized for Android, more people will be able to get a PC-like browsing experience on their mobile handsets.

You can download Opera Mini directly to your Android phone by visiting m.opera.com/next with the Android browser or search for Opera Mini 5 in the Android Market.
