Opera: Android is a less effective advertising platform than iOS and BlackBerry

Google thinks otherwise.

Maybe because a lot of android users choose to use Dolphin or Chrome or even Stock.

Opera is still alive?

Oh of course the people at Opera conducted this survey themselves, no Android user in their right mind would dare to use the abomination that is Opera on their device, it's a piece of junk web browser for the Android platform.

Let's see, there's the stock browser, Dolphin (I don't care for it but it is very good) and then there's Chrome, the master of all browsers. Like Chronopc said, is Opera still around? I used Opera once, I'd much rather use Internet Explorer than that.

its kinda obvious that people who use android tend to use stock browser more...or chrome..

Here's the thing: which is more compatible with Flash?

I like Opera on desktops. Not on Android. I like Chrome on desktop and Android, but I use Firefox for Flash. Dolphin is nice too. Opera on Android is just the odd man out. Skyfire might get more attention on Android than Opera.

I think it has to do with Flash.

The only thing I can think of, the screen is too small on the iPhones and people keeps pressing the advertisements by mistake.

I like Opera only on Symbian devices. Now Symbian is dead...

Opera mobile is amazingly slick and smooth (on the Galaxy S3 at least ), it even beats chrome and ICS browser here - especially with text reflow and zooming performance .
They streamlined it with the latest release cutting the app size in half, but it's still not stable really.. occasional force closes and bugs continue.

Too bad because otherwise it would be the best browser hands down.

the only time I use opera is when i'm on 3G, because it saves my data.. it's slow, but i usually set the image quality at the lowest, so it'll load faster..

oh, and I don't know why, but porn sites are blocked in my country, and the only way I can get access to them is through Opera..

As an avid Opera user the responses to this article is ridiculous. Just because Opera lays down some financial facts about the Mobile OS companies. The bashing on Opera begins, Seriously this is just a statistic. Not Opera claiming another OS is better than the other.
