Opera surpasses Safari internationally

Opera surpasses Safari in global mobile browser market share



According to the latest figures from StatCounter, the opera mobile browser has once again overtaken the iPhone's safari browser as the most popular mobile browser internationally.

The two popular browsers have been battling for six months, but Safari has beaten out its rival for at least the last three months.

For the month of May however, Opera saw an unexpected spike in usage and jumped to 24.6 percent, while Safari fell to 17.6 percent.

In the United States, Safari remains dominant, followed by BlackBerry. Opera holds a tiny 3 percent market share.

"Opera began the year in number one slot but iPhone overtook it in February. May saw Opera regain the number one position," noted StatCounter CEO Aodhan Cullen. "It will be fascinating to watch how this battle plays out over the year."

Yeah I've read that article, but I think SkyFire is still the best mobile browser. Opera and Safari has just been out longer so it more mainstream...... but SkyFire is picking up some steam!
