Massive shift in internet traffic from PCs to smaller devices like iPhone has triggered web browsers to transform themselves to better serve mobile internet users. With the change in the way we use internet, we can see more web browser developers strive hard to create better innovation in order to gain the edge over competitors which in turn benefits people. Speaking of which, Opera has recently come up with Opera Turbo, claimed to be successful in improving browsing speed by compressing bandwidth usage.
Opera Turbo which currently makes its exclusive appearance on Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, is able to reduce network traffic and save on data transmissions by compressing up to 80 percent of the transmitted data. This results in cheaper web browsing on mobile phones and faster browsing experience to their end-users, independent of hardware limitations and network constraints.
Opera Turbo does not transcode pages when reducing the size of the transferred page. It offers full support for dynamic Web technologies such as Ajax and Flash (they are not compressed though).
Opera Turbo will be available to Opera Mini, Opera Mobile and Opera Desktop users.
