      Hello! I have a question. Opera Max restarted as Samsung Max. Did Samsung buy Opera Max? Or Did Samsung borrow Opera Max?

          @leocg The google play webpage of Opera Max changed to Samusung Max webpage. And When you updated Opera Max, This app would change to Samsung Max. So, I don't think similur app.

          I watched some news about this. But in these news, it was not clearly wrote that Sumsung buy or borrow Opera Max. It was only wrote that Samusung paid. But I don't know how it means. Buy? or Borrow? šŸ¤” ??

            I posted a link to that VentureBeat article myself previously, after having seen it posted on Slashdot. Opera had previously removed Max from the Play Store ... the unknowns at the time of the VentureBeat article was whether Samsung had actually bought it, and whether future versions would work with non-Samsung phones.
