How does it handle pinch to zoom and double tap to enlarge the column you tapped? I'm currently enjoying the latest Miren RC as it's so smooth, but anything that is even faster may be enough to change my mind

Opera is the smoothest browser as it is GPU accelerated on the Tab. As an overall package it isn't quite up there with the likes of Miren or Dolphin imo.
No offense to anyone, but I think Opera sucks **** through a garden hose. Who cares about speed if half of the pages don't render correctly.
I'll never understand the Opera lovers.

its all choice and opinion but Miren is very nice looking, fast, (at least faster then stock on my GT) and intuitive. i used Dolphin HD but something simpler and appealing about Miren made me bounce...
my two cents.
my two cents.
A couple of times a year for the best part of a decade, I give the various Opera browsers another try, and I always find them to be a complete waste of time, either they're slow, they don't render pages "correctly", or their UI is just a complete mess. I'm sure it's fine in _some_ cases, but for my uses I find it to be horrible when compared with some of the other alternatives.
FWIW - Firefox mobile isn't looking promising, takes too long to start and doesn't seem to accept pages passed to it from many apps to open. I'll stick with DolphinHD until something that is better all-round turns up.
Edit: Hadn't heard of the Miren browser until just now, having a look at it and I'm quite impressed. Might make my primary for a while.

I also like Miren, but does anyone know why it always stays "zoomed in" on certain pages? For instance, if I load this web page on Miren (or any other browser besides Dolphin that is based off of the stock browser), it always loads up zoomed in to the upper left of the page. No matter what zoom settings or text size I tell it to use, still the same. Dolphin HD is the only one that doesnt do this.
Anyone??

Indeed you are a noob. Dolphin is still superior. CPU acceleration ammounts to squat for us tab users. And the rendering, lack of user agent support, dodgy Java implementation (serverside) all make opera the worst mobile browser out there for the tab.
No offence, but you sir a noob.

Why? I've read a few of these endorsements of Xscope, but there are rarely any reasons given.
I find Miren to have a much better user interface than any of the others. When it comes to features and customization, Miren is equal to or better than the rest. Miren is also very stable while being as fast or nearly as fast as any of the others.
Most importantly, Miren's interface seems designed for tablet use.
I agree! I'm trying the trail of xscope, but I don't think it is that much better than stock. I'm not convinced yet.

Just go and compare viewing Gizmodo or Engadget, Full. Not the mobile sites. but the actual full ones.
You will clearly see how sluggish and slow the regular browser is compared to opera.
Sadly Opera is really fast but as another person here said its lacking a lot of features and one of the most annoying bugs is that links do not get picked up correctly. I used it heavily as it is the smoothest browser (mainly due to its compression features) but I always had to zoom in to click small links..
drove me insane.
