Opera Mobile 10.1 app review

Opera 10.1 is officially out of beta, and it’s pretty much essential for all Symbian^3 and S60 users. Why? Because, to put it bluntly, it knocks Nokia’s default browser into a cocked hat. That’s no disgrace though, as Opera has been up there with the very best mobile browsers for some time.

Version 10.1 makes browsing on your Nokia a pleasure, with a handy 3×3 Speed Dial grid providing easy access to your favourite websites, an excellent on-screen keyboard and Opera’s customary blazing performance. Apparently this is twice as fast as the previous version, which was no slouch itself.

Mirror Mobile app review
Regardless of your opinion on The Mirror and its lowest common denominator approach to news reporting, it deserves a lot of credit for getting an app onto Ovi Store. It’s one area where it puts tabloid and broadsheet rivals to shame.

Jamie’s Recipes app review
There’s already one Jamie Oliver app available for iPhone – Jamie’s 20 Minute Meals – and it’s been very popular. Its follow-up is free, but uses in-app payments to sell you bundles of recipes according to theme. Classic Comfort Food, Tasty Tray-Bakes and the like.
