Actually it did reflow the entire page. In particular, it inserted line breaks where ever text was being laid out, without ever messing with the width of divs or other elements. It then made a seamless jump with the viewport to keep the point of interest where you expect it to be on the screen. That's years ago when the Chromium version came out, however. I don't know how or if it works today, or how it was implemented in Presto before then.

The version with per div reflowing might have been before android. My Sony P1i ran symbian I think, can't remember actually. It was way before reactive webpages were a thing. And it worked really well for making most desktop pages usable on my phone. I also missed the scroll wheel and the rocker keyboard for the longest time
