We know that Facebook is still trying to get into China’s pants, and that is a story for a different day, but here we have China’s most popular mobile browser, UC Browser 8.2 for Android, and it will finally make an attempt to break into the US market. Already boasting 200 million users in China and another 30 million users outside of China, it would be interesting to see whether UC Browser is able to make an impact Stateside, considering folks at this moment rely heavily on Opera Mobile and the stock Android Web browser. We will look at some of the features that intend to help UC Browser stand out from the rest of the competition in the extended post.
First of all, UC Browser 8.2 for Android will come with multi-touch and voice control function, where the former allows you to open, close, switch pages, return to the previous page, and move to the next page, using gestures only without having to access any pesky menu options or buttons. With the inclusion of voice control, you can now surf the Internet on your Android-powered device without the use of your fingers, how neat is that? The entire UC Browser 8.2 for Android weighs in at 5.2MB if you are interested.
