Opera Mini Next

This is a Beta of Opera Mini 7.0 which Opera is calling “Opera Mini Next”.

New features in Opera Mini Next:

  • Support for more than 9 speed dials – you can add as many as you like, or as many as your device can handle.
  • Improved support for Right To Left languages
  • Tab improvements – Tabs are now closed with one click on touch screen devices. And when you close a tab, Opera Mini will switch to the one you used last.
  • No more “www.” in address bar. The auto completion still supports it, though.
  • Text wrap toggle added
  • New tabbed Start Page with Speed Dial and Smart Page tabs. The smart page displays:
    • My Sites – Auto generated links to your three most visited sites. Swipe left to see six more.
    • Social Networks – Displays the two most recent items from your Facebook News Feed and Twitter timeline. Swipe left to see more entries (up to six each from Facebook and Twitter).
    • My News – Three headlines from RSS feeds. Swipe left to see three more headlines.
    • Suggested Links – About 25 non-removable links to mainstream sites. The links are divided into categories like News, Finance, Sports and Social Networks

Known issues :

  • Speed dials may move around unexpectedly and the order can be inconsistent.
In my own testing, mOpera Mini Next performed about as well as Opera Mini 6.5 on the Motorola Rambler. There wa squite a bit of lag until I turned off Opera Link and the Smart Page Feature (Settings > Advanced > Home Page = Off). On the Motorola i776, Opera Mini Next installed but hung on startup.
