Opera Expands Optimization Beta Test

Opera Software announced in its blog that Opera Max for Android will be available to more beta testers: " In December last year, we opened up Opera Max to a limited number of Android beta testers in the USA to see how you enjoy our new data-savings app.

Well, it seems like many of you like it, and now we want more testers. Starting today, we’re rolling out pre-registration of a public beta version of Opera Max to Android users in the United States and Western Europe.

.. Opera Max compresses videos, photos and text across most of your phone’s apps giving you a lot more mobile data for free. It also gives you better control over how your phone’s apps consume data .. With the help of our new family at Skyfire [see "Opera Buys Skyfire for (up to) $155M" - here], we were able to bring out the first app of its kind that can shrink down mobile video. That means more Instagram and Vine without having to upgrade your data plan".
