Opera Mini makes your feature phone smarter! Finally the features that we launched in the Opera Mini Next version back in February are available for real on J2ME (Java phones), BlackBerry and S60.
Opera Mini 7 includes the new Smart Page that will give a quick and easy access to your social networks, favorite sites and other popular content. Stay connected on Facebook and Twitter right in the first screen of Opera Mini.

functionality and behaviour stays the same since the first opera mini 5 version
major issues :
- 1 mb page size limit make not all images loaded. it maybe a workaround for java phone limited memory, but could you just squeeze the image quality to fit the memory?
issues with opera mini 6.5 onwards :
- lost focus object when handling error page. many users think it freeze. can be solved by press menu softkey, but if happen when on download dialog it really freeze and user MUST kill opera mini first and lost what they're on at that time
so no fun at all
- 15 mb file download limit, I've also tested with wifi but still instant fail when downloading a file larger than 15 mb. so it's on opera mini side! why did you do it opera mini team??
improvement demand :
- solve all those issues, seriously guys!
- function to set download folder in the settings. so in the download dialog there's only 'default' and 'other'. it would be more convenient and fast that way
- active javascript?
I can decrease waiting time by putting this on the url :
javascript:var(c=0)
sadly it only decrease 3 seconds so i have to repeat it over and over again, hey but it's working!
can't you just integrate it somehow?
are you actually read the comment section?
please answer me, The Opera Mini Team !?
