Opera Mini for iPhone was submitted to the Apple iPhone App store on March 23, 2010. I think most people didn’t believe this app would ever be approved. Well earlier today it was announced that the app has been approved and is available right now in the App Store.
What makes this browser so fast is due to the server-side rendering, Opera Mini compresses the data before it is sent to your phone.
My initial impressions is this browser is fast. The app opened up fast and you are shown the default Opera start page. From here you have links to facebook, twitter, New York Time, AccWeather and My Opera. You also have the option of adding your own. It is very similar to Google Chrome when you open a new tab. The browser is amazing at how fast it renders pages. One thing that I noticed is the the ability to Find in Page. You select the Find in Page button and then type what you are trying to find. The words you are trying to find are highlighted on the webpage. Opera certainly has released a very nice alternative to Safari.
