Opera Mini For Windows Phone Updated
Appears to be incompatible with a lot of modern web pages.
From what sounds like an awesome update to all the Windows Phone users out there, it turned out to be quite a disappointment, at least for some of us.
Despite awesome new inclusions like fresh user interface (which is awesome), improved downloads manager, combined address & search bar and so on, there appears to be one thing that will drive you nuts: Opera’s inability to work with today’s modern (JavaScript heavy) pages.
For example, even Opera’s own Report Bug page is broken (see missing icons), same with other modern pages, some responsive WordPress themes don’t even work and so on.
Still want to test it?

Opera Mini isn’t for JavaScript heavy pages at all, it’s a browser originally meant for flip phones. Interactivity is far from a strong point, it isn’t the point at all.
