The Opera Browser for Android is out of beta testing and the final version of the browser is out on Google's Play Store. The interface of Opera has been redesigned, with a lighter colour scheme, and comes with some features which promise both faster and smarter browsing.

Discover: This feature will help find articles for users. The option is available right from your home screen. You can pick interests from categories such as Arts, News, Technology. It's automatic and already installed in the Opera browser for Android.

Off-Road mode: When you don't have great network connectivity and you want to save data, you can switch to this mode. It offers data compression, which reduces the amount of data traffic while browsing on your smartphone.

Speed Dial: Speed Dial can now hold all your bookmarks in an easier way than before. Text reflow lets people view web text at any zoom level without scrolling sideways. You can simply press and hold a favourite site to add it to Speed Dial. You can drop a favourite site on top of another to create a folder as well.
