Opera has announced that it will launch the new Opera Mobile 9.7, its "server-accelerated" full web experience for phones, at next week's CTIA Wireless event in Las Vegas.
Opera Mobile 9.7 features Opera Turbo, Opera’s compression technology, along with the company’s Presto 2.2 rendering engine and support for Ajax and Flash.
Opera Turbo compresses bandwidth consumption by processing data being sent to a mobile phone or a PC by up to 80%.

So the speed of Opera mini combined with the functionality of opera mobile..
This could be interesting.

Final v. of Opera Mini 4.1 out & Tietokone publishes desktop browser speed comparison
The final version of Opera Mini 4.1, one of the best Web browsers available, has just been released; see THIS for more info. I’ll post a detailed multiplatform review in some days, after having used it for some time on all my three mobile operating systems.
Finnish computer mag Tietokone has just published a summary of their desktop browser speed test published in their (offline) papermag. Currently, I only have access to the online summary (while I'm a paying subscriber to their mag, it hasn't arrived yet). I'll let you know when there's anything else of interest in the article as soon as I receive the offline version - it's promised to be pblished tomorrow (which means subscribers living in abroad receive it shoon thereafter).
They state the current desktop Opera 9.5 b2 is considerably faster than both Internet Explorer 8 b2 and Mozilla Firefox 2. It's only Apple's Safari and Mozilla Firefox 3 beta 5 that turned out to be faster. It has also turned out to be faster with both normal- and Flash-based contents.
I've always preferred using Opera to IE on my 15" UXGA (1600*1200) Thinkpad because, even as of IE8b2, Opera 9.5 has far better zoom-in capabilities (which is essential on an UXGA or WUXGA 15" notebook), particularly when zooming into forum pages; not to mention its standards compliance (see my latest reports HERE).
I've been using opera on the htc diamond but I notice that it just keeps crashing when I try to go onto some sites like logmein. I use to be able to go on most of these sites if memory serves when I was using my vario2, but I can't remember what browser I was using.
In my experience Opera mobile is the best I ever used, and works perfect on my Uni
Opera Mini!
Opera Mini 4.2. Opera Mobile cannot hold a candle to this one - yeah the Mini is server-side cached, etc. but doesnt matter because the render fidelity is pretty good for almost 90% of the browsing experience.
SUPER FAST !!! SPEED SPEED SPEED!
Another vote for opera mini here. I do 99% of my mobile browsing on it. It may be a bit limited feature-wise, but for simple navigation and viewing there is nothing faster.
Check out Shiranmotha's all-in-one cab installer.
For me Opera Mini is the best browser for ppc.
skyfire is pretty decent
I actually use both Opera and Skyfire. Opera still has some bugs on some websites. But i mostly use Opera because of how fast it is Skyfire takes too long to load a website.
Just installed opera mini but is it just me or does it allow you to zoom in when using the htc diamond circle button?
What's the best web browser for HTC touch pro? Unlocked with a customer ROM on it, but it just came with I.E. I really liked the opera mobile browser previously on the phone, but I wanted some input. If opera is the best, where is the best/newest/fastest version of opera mobile avaliable?
on experience Opera mobile 9.5 or 9.7 is the best browser

opera mini is my favorate...
The new Opera Mini 5 beta looks pretty awesome.
Definately Opera Mini 5. For sites that use AJAX and other script-heavy technologies, Opera Mobile 9.5 (or 9.7, test it first on the device as its buggy).
In my experience, best is Opera 9.5 as provided with a lot of current (cooked) ROM's. Fastest is Opera 9.7 with Turbo enabled. This is being shipped with some of the newest ROMs (Tom Rhodium Manila 2.5 Build 23016 v1.0 for example).
Of course is Opera Mini. It's the most popular mobile phone web browser in the world. I use it on my diamond 2. It's awesome! And it's my favorite.
With Flash support IExplorer
Without Flash support Opera (mini v5 beta/mobile 9.7 beta), iris Browser v1.19 (but I don't know if it's free too)
Skyfire is only QVGA and NetFront is outclassed by previous browsers
D'rath
Opera Mobile if you use a lot of Touch Screen and turn off the G-Sensor stuff that automatically orients screen (which seems to do it at the least random movement sometimes).
I personally prefer Opera Mini only because it's more kb shortcut friendly (as opposed to touch my screen I like using the kb for quick favorites and other functions)
UCWEB is best for me, faster than Opera... Skyfire if you want to browse YouTube.
I've searched and haven't found a good comparison between the differences between Opera Mobile and the WinMo native version of Opera Mini. I know that Opera Mobile can access websites w/o "opera turbo" whereas Opera Mini cannot i believe. Does anyone know any other differences or know where to find a good comparison?
