The beta version of Opera Mini for Android got its fair share of complaints, for example, the inability to play videos. But after lots of bug fixing and feedback offering, Opera Mini 4.2 has finally been launched in the Android Market and comes with a host of improvements:
Now you can upload and download files through Opera Mini and save pages for offline viewing
Videos will be redirected to the system’s video player
Double tap now works for zooming in and out
Inline URL entry instead of using native input
Fixed password text entry to hide characters
Fixed problems with exiting application when back button was pressed
Improved trackball speed
All internal pages, like the start page, now have font size extra large for easier navigation
Give it a try and see how you like it compared to the “Chrome Lite” that runs as the default browser on Android and the G1. Lets see if we can’t get a group consensus here.
