The secret to Nokia Browser for Series 40: efficient proxy-based browsing
Nokia Browser for Series 40 comprises a client and a cloud-based proxy service. When a user requests a web page the proxy reads the page, processes CSS and JavaScript code, and compresses its content, which is then delivered to the client for display on the user's phone. This means Series 40 phones can now access complex websites that were off limits with earlier browsers, and have full desktop web pages delivered with an up to 90 per cent reduction in transferred data. Because compressing the page's content reduces the amount of data transmitted over the air, page content is delivered faster and in a format that the client can load with speed.
This technology enables users on limited data plans or in areas with limited data coverage to browse the web with a UX previously available only on high-speed networks and unlimited data plans. Now, any mobile consumer can gain access to more content — the content they want — like never before.
Connecting you with the Series 40 opportunity
Whether you own a global brand or serve consumers in your local community, Nokia Browser for Series 40 will enable consumers to access your content more readily. This will bring new value to your web resources as Nokia enables the vast Series 40 market to get online.
