This is big news, the gamer orientated browser, Opera GX is now available on iOS and Android. Why is this big news? Because for me, Opera GX has been the fastest and lightest browser I have ever used. Some of us at team TC have been using the Opera GX mobile browser and it certainly keeps that crown, for me at least, of being the best browser available, to date.

Check out the press release below:

June 15, 2021, Oslo, Norway – To celebrate the final day of E3, Opera (NASDAQ: OPRA) today announced the launch of Opera GX for mobile, the world’s first mobile browser built specifically for gamers on the move. The mobile version is packed with many of the great features that gamers currently enjoy with the hugely popular Opera GX desktop browser (Windows and macOS), which is already the prefered choice of browser for millions of gamers worldwide. These features include the latest gaming news, custom skins, unique navigation with haptic feedback, native ad blocker and more.

Opera GX is now the best set of browsers for gamers on the go and at home, using their mobile and desktop devices.

We launched the desktop version of Opera GX during E3 2019. This year, with the event coming back, we have some good news for everyone who wants their smartphone browsing experience to match their gaming tastes,” said Maciej Kocemba, product director of Opera GX.

“Those tastes are ever-evolving. Two years ago, we launched the best browser for PC gamers, and since then, we have seen the entire games industry shift towards cross-play. With Opera GX mobile, we are making sure that all gamers have a browser that offers them a superior web experience and lets them follow the latest news about their favorite games on PlayStation, Xbox, Switch and every other platform they enjoy.“

Mobile users can enjoy a host of features, including custom navigation with the Fast Action Button (FAB), which uses gaming-inspired vibration and haptic feedback for smoother, more intuitive browsing. There is also the ability to sync mobile and desktop experiences through the Flow feature, enabling gamers to share walkthroughs, tutorials, and character builds between devices. The mobile browser also includes the GX Corner – a unique space on GX ’s home screen featuring the latest gaming news about desktop, console and mobile games, deals, trailers and a game release calendar. The mobile version also distinguishes itself with a gaming-inspired design with a variety of different color themes for both dark and light modes.
