Opera has updated the Opera browser for Android to version 20, that brings WebRTC (Real-Time Communications support) that lets the browser communicate peer-to-peer with encryption without plugins. This was first introduced in the Opera 20 beta for Android last month. This update also brings ability to configure UI layout to suit mobile phone or tablet, simple search feature that auto completes your search results, option select phone, classic or tablet layout and more. The discover ticker feature that was introduced in Opera 20 Beta has been removed, since it needed polishing, says Opera.
