Opera Mini mobile browser crosses 50 million usersOpera Mini, the world’s most popular mobile browser, has crossed the 50 million unique monthly users mark in January 2010. This milestone proves the popularity of Opera Mini compared to other Rival mobile browsers, as users seek out the Opera Mini experience over other options by downloading it on their mobile devices.

In just the past year, Opera Mini has seen unprecedented growth in every geographic location, with the number of users growing 150 percent from 20 million monthly unique users in January 2009 to 50 million monthly unique users in January 2010. These are not users who have just downloaded Opera Mini, but people who use the browser on an active basis, making it a market leader ahead of any other mobile browser.

Opera Software had earlier reported that India ranks third among the top markets for Opera Mini, overtaking China. The company does not share country-specific numbers but has reported that page views in India have gone up 202 per cent since September 2008. The number of unique users has also gone up by 61 per cent in this period.

According to Gartner, Inc., by 2013, mobile phones will overtake PCs as the most common Web access device worldwide. With the speedy rise in the number of people browsing the Web from their mobile phone, users are picking the best software to surf the real Web on their devices — and that’s where Opera Mini comes in.

That statistic also explains the exponential growth of Opera Mini in the last few months. To reach its first 10 million users, Opera Mini took 28 months from January 2006 to April 2008. However, the last 10 million has taken only three months from November 2009 to January 2010.
