What's the difference between opera browser and opera mini browser?

[Fidelia]

I have seen both the Opera browser and the Opera mini browser on the Playstore. They are made by the same developers.

What are the main differences between the two browsers? Which marked features differentiate them?

I know that the opera mini browser is lighter than the main opera browser. But the opera mini can't load pages with heavy ads.

The opera mini browser is a lighter version of the opera browser that helps to save data while using.

Although Opera and Opera Mini browsers are from the same developer, they target different user groups. Opera is the full version, including features such as VPN, ad blocker, and a spacious user interface, and it doesn't require high device performance or data usage. Opera Mini, on the other hand, is designed for users who want to save data and use slower networks. It compresses pages and speeds up loading, but image quality may be slightly reduced. Therefore, if you have a powerful smartphone and want a full browsing experience, Opera is a good choice. However, if you have limited data or a lower-spec device, Opera Mini is more suitable for everyday browsing.

Opera mini browser compresses the site such that the amount of bandwidth used to open the site is half of what the main opera browser uses to open the same site.
