Opera Mini comes equipped with various great features including Opera Link, Virtual mouse and security features. However some settings are still appealing to customize. For example, if you want to save the bandwidth, just go to the menu Menu> Tools> Settings, and then removed the check mark in front of the Load images option. Conversely, if you want to display images with high quality, you can change the settings into High Quality Image.
If you use a low resolution display, give a checkmark on Full screen mode option, so that various accessories and the taskbar will be removed and the web page will be displayed in a full screen mode. To reduce power consumption and save the battery life, you can also remove the animation effects that appear with each menu by removing check mark on Visual effects option.
The last tips, try to open a web site with a complex view such as nytimes.com or cnn.com on Opera Mini. The Page will not directly appear in a legible font size, instead the page will appear in overview mode that reflect the entire site. Then you can zoom by using the cursor.
Now, if you want to directly access the web page without having to go to overview mode, you can go to the Menu> Tools> Settings and remove the check mark on the Show Overview option.
And don’t forget to save your work. Happy browsing…
