Opera Mobile 9.5 for Windows Mobile better than Safari for iPhone ! June 25, 2008 [Pocket PC phone] | By Edward J. R. Updated: contrary to what we thought Opera Mobile 9.5 can spoof other browsers after all! To learn how to do it, click here! Opera company offers Opera Mobile 9.5 now only to manufacturers to embed into handsets - the version for end customers is not available yet and it is unknown when it is coming. We must admit that some web pages Opera Mobile 9.5 cannot handle at all even though the same pages work very well with NetFront 3.5 - and we have passed on to Opera this problem so they cannot pretend that they don't know. However on HTC Touch Diamond Opera Mobile 9.5 that is built-in into this phone, has some fantastic features: In HTC Touch Diamond the Opera Mobile 9.5 has 2 fantastic features: automatic orientation rotation that uses tilt sensor and, even better one: with the wheel under the display of this phone (this wheel is virtual, not physical - it is just a drawing but it works!) one can gradually (no hiccups!) zoom in and zoom out the page and size of the fonts! This zooming in and out is better than iPhone's pinching because it is very precise and totally gradual. We will publish yet a full review of Opera Mobile 9.5 and comparison of Opera Mobile 9.5 with Internet Explorer Mobile and NetFront 3.5, but in meantime here comes a comparison of Opera Mobile 9.5 with Safari in iPhone, where it is proven beyond doubt that Opera Mobile 9.5 running on Windows Mobile is better: From the above video it should be clear that Opera Mobile 9.5 is both easier to use (better zooming with less effort) and objectively is more standards compliant that the iPhone browser. While Opera Mobile 9.5 is only currently available on a few devices, such as the HTC Touch Diamond, HTC Advantage II and Samsung Omnia To learn more visit Opera versus Safari comparison video.
