About:
The Opera Mobile Emulator is a desktop application that simulates the Opera Mobile browser on various device profiles. It allows developers to test and debug mobile websites and web applications directly from their computer, providing a crucial tool for responsive web design and mobile-first development workflows.
Key Features:
  • Emulates Opera Mobile browser on desktop
  • Supports multiple device profiles and screen resolutions
  • Includes developer tools for inspecting and debugging mobile web pages
  • Allows testing of touch events and gestures
  • Provides network throttling to simulate different connection speeds
Use Cases:
  • Testing website responsiveness and layout on mobile devices
  • Debugging JavaScript and CSS for mobile-specific browser behavior
  • Previewing web applications during development before deploying to physical devices
Alternatives:
  • chrome-devtools – Built-in browser emulator focused on Chrome/Chromium, lacks specific Opera browser engine simulation.
  • browserstack – Cloud-based service for testing on real devices and many browsers, not a free local emulator.
