Opera Statistics: Browser Now Has 300 Million Users Across Devices

Millions and Billions - not getting lost is the goal for us here at Statspotting. Browser wars has not been something we had tracked very closely - other than the occasional browser downloads per second when a new version is released - we had tracked some stats on Firefox quite some time back - specifically, on how the profitability was very low - we spotted this stat today, that the Opera browser has seen some very significant growth in the past few months, across devices - and the total now stands at a solid 300 million users (Source)

How do we digest this number? Well, with half-a-billion android and half-a-billion iOS devices out there, this number does look substantial, particularly for a browser that does not enjoy the kind of 'default' privilege that other browsers enjoy. It is a solid number for Opera.
