Only several days after announcing the availability of Opera Mini for Windows Phone as part of a beta testing program, Opera appears to have already made the software available for all users out there. 

The application can be seen on this page in the Windows Phone Store today, where it is listed in a beta flavor, but available for all those interested in taking it for a spin, without the needs to sign up for the testing program.

One thing that you should keep in mind before hitting the download link, however, is the fact that the application is still only a beta release, which means that there could be a series of issues affecting your experience with it.

It includes all of its popular features

Opera Mini arrives on Windows Phone with all of the features and capabilities that those who already used it on other platforms are accustomed with.

Thus, Windows Phone users will enjoy Speed Dial, for fact access to their favorite websites straight from the browser’s home screen, as well as Smart Page, which has been designed to provide users with instant updates from all of their social sites on one screen.

Opera Mini for Windows Phone also comes with tabbed browsing capabilities, so that you can open more than one website at a time, and to easily switch between them. Moreover, it allows users to save pages for later reading, or for those times when they are not connected to the Internet.

It offers fast browsing, data savings, and secure navigation

According to Opera, its mobile browser will allow users to navigate websites faster even when it comes to content-heavy webpages that include lots of images and graphics.

“We make webpages lighter, so you can enjoy the fastest browser for your device,” Opera notes in the application’s description in the Windows Phone Store.

Additionally, Opera Mini has been designed to offer data savings by reducing webpages down to 10 percent of their normal size. This also results in faster browsing.

The features list of the application also includes easier navigation, courtesy of bigger buttons and a clear layout, as well as fast sharing capabilities.

At the same time, Opera notes that its new Opera Mini for Windows Phone comes with various security and data privacy enhancements that will keep users safer on the web.

Opera Mini is available for download from the Windows Phone Store, with support for all devices running under Windows Phone 8 and Windows Phone 8.1 operating system versions.
