Quietly introduced in a recent update, this is a nice feature that displays the page you're reading with all the ads and background images stripped out, and the text enlarged and formatted.
Really nice when reading an article on news site that has a lot of distracting crap that the text wraps around.
Also handy for printing an article in a legible manner. I like to print long form articles sometimes, and read them in the morning over coffee. Some of these news sites have articles that don't even print properly because there's so much scripting.

It's in the Android version too:
