Download Opera Mobile 10.1 for Symbian with improved Javascript performance , Geolocation


Opera Software has released the final build of the Opera mobile 10.1 Browser for Symbian / S60 smartphones. The app was available earlier as a Beta. The final version packs improved javascript performance and also introduces Geo-location for the first time in the mobile browser from the Norwegian company. The company said that Opera Mobile 10.1 is 9 times faster than Opera Mobile 10.0 due to the optimization of the Javascript engine.

Geo-location enables web applications to provide localized content depending on your current GPS co-ordinates.

“Powerful smartphones deserve an equally powerful browser,” said Lars Boilesen, CEO, Opera Software. “Opera Mobile 10.1 today brings the best mobile browsing experience to the world’s most popular smartphone platform.”

It’s nice to see Opera continue support for Symbian when most other app developers are neglecting the platform. Grab Opera Mobile 10.1 for your Symbian phone and let us know your feedback.
