Opera Mobile 9.5 web browser coming soon
Opera Software has just announced the commercial release of Opera Mobile 9.5, upcoming successor to the already fantastic 8.65 mobile web browser for Windows Mobile and Symbian devices.
The new version, which will be shown to attendees at next week’s Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, uses the company’s Presto rendering engine to deliver a more desktop-like browsing experience to mobile phones by offering improved AJAX and JavaScript support, faster load times, offline browsing, widgets, Flash Lite 3, tabbed browsing, and more. Like Safari on the iPhone (and soon, Skyfire on Windows Mobile), Opera Mobile 9.5 will also allow users to zoom into and pan portions of a web page for better, more intuitive navigation.
The public beta release is expected to be announced soon. In the meantime, check out the guided video tour below.
