For those looking to get full control of their data usage or maximize their browsing speeds, the new Opera Max is a one-stop shop. Opera today announced that an update to the app includes their latest “Opera Turbo” technology, a much more sophisticated method of proxying data for browsers and apps. This means that Opera Max just got much faster and much more secure.

Opera Max optimizes streaming content so that you can play music or video without hiccups, even on the faintest wi-fi network. However, security is always a concern on public networks, so the Opera team has been hard at work figuring out how to make the data you stream through Opera Max more secure. The solution is in the implementation of VPN connections: SPDY SSL rather than HTTP 1.1. SSL encryption makes keeps the communication between your smartphone and Opera Max’s servers secure, keeping your mind at rest when using public wi-fi networks.

Faster than Uc browser when downloading?

Is it a browser?

Its not a browser, rather, its an app that uses data compression technology for all your apps on your phone thereby reducing data usage.... and yes, it is developed by Opera, same Opera of Opera Mini et al.....been using the app since 2014 and it works very very well

can it be setup to work like psiphon or does it require a normal data subscription?

Yes, it does, but it's a small sacrifice to make if your intention was to maximize your internet speed.

By saving data, it's automatically and invariably maximizing your internet speed.
