Opera has launched Opera Mini 4.2 beta, the new version of its mobile phone browser.
Opera Mini 4.2 beta is more customisable with a selection of new skins and has improved support for YouTube and other mobile video services on a wider selection of mobile phones, the company said.
First launched in January 2006, Opera Mini is compatible with any mobile phone that can run Java, according to Opera.
Opera said that over 20 million people per month worldwide use the Opera Mini browser.
"The number of people using Opera Mini worldwide proves that there is a true revolution going on: people want to access all their favourite sites on the mobile phone they have today," said Jon von Tetzchner of Opera.
"We constantly focus on developing a faster and more personal browsing experience. Opera Mini 4.2 beta is an update that takes mobile web browsing to the next level," he continued.
