Growth of Opera Mini
In June 2013, there were over 251 million Opera Mini, Opera for Android and Opera Mobile Classic users. The Opera Mini users in this group viewed over 170 billion webpages in this period.
Since the Opera Mini web browser for mobile phones compresses pages, at a rate where the compressed webpage may be only ten percent of its original size, this amount of data would have been as high as 13 petabytes uncompressed.
