UC Browser for Android - everything you need from a mobile browser, and more AdBlock
Android / / December 19, 2019
Android users do not have problems with browsers. Put any popular client, and you'll be fine. So what is the point of the existence of such a large number of alternative clients, if each of them can do everything that the user needs? In fact, it makes sense, because people are different and the needs of the preferences they are also different.
By themselves reasons unknown to us, we have not considered so far UC BrowserAnd this is a very sensible Android-browser with more than a hundred million users. Why such popularity? It's just that this product has several strong arguments that could have a few minutes of working with him get away from the main screen, Chrome, Opera, Firefox or Dolphin and assign UC browser on Default.
We will not dwell on the basics, since absolutely any modern mobile browsers, including UC Browser, can do everything that the user can properly and comfortably surf. Obviously, people are sitting on UC Browser for some other reasons that go beyond the basic functionality of other browsers.
Price: Free
Interface
A very subjective matter. We will not argue that apple tastes of orange and simply say: we interface UC Browser like it because everything is convenient, as the newly published version at number 10 became the browser interface even better. It is not so much about the location of some individual controls how much of the overall intuitiveness. Use the browser is easy and pleasant, and even a person who has worked exclusively with mobile Chrome and Android-credit default browser used to UC Browser for four minutes.
There is a huge, but understandable preinstalled base of popular Internet resources with the division into categories. You access them with a single tap. button to go to the home page moved down, and frequently used function buttons moved to a more convenient access to the upper part of the menu.
Lack of synchronization problems with bookmarking desktop Chrome
This is a tragedy for all products having a mobile browser, but do not have a desktop version. How to sync your bookmarks? UC Browser solved the problem is practical: to synchronize bookmarks with the desktop user is prompted UC-create an account and download the extension.
But the account is created not only for the sake of synchronization. With uchotki user can create a personalized environment, fully customized for themselves and protected from others. It also includes personalization extensions (of which below) and the whole personal space inside the browser. If your mobile device has multiple users, the additional account for the browser will only be a plus.
Support for Flash «out of the box" and without surprises
Some Flash needed, but want to work with him, not all mobile clients. And if they want to, then ask for any additional software or money. UC Browser works with Flash directly and honestly.
tab manager
The new version of UC Browser also received an updated tab manager, which now strongly resembles the interface control applications in iOS. From here you can quickly switch to incognito mode for each tab, create a new tab and immediately close all of the current tab.
Store extensions, in which there are plenty of useful software + AdBlock
But this is the flip side of specialization on the mobile client - no desktop browser, but in the Android-version has everything!
The same mobile Chrome can not boast of extensions, and here they are. Not much, but still quite useful and popular:
- interpreter;
- gesture control;
- video downloader sites;
- CS is an advanced tool;
- saving pages for offline viewing and to PDF;
- screenshot editor;
- QR-scanner and generator;
- archiver;
- compressing traffic and cleaning device for the acceleration of the browser;
- AdBlock «out of the box" without hemorrhoids setting - one is an extension worth it to start using UC Browser, Google's because we have such a tool can not wait for ever.
View mode images
Someone goes on the Internet only to see the seals, and for such people in the UC Browser is provided special browsing mode, which displays only the images, and all text and other unnecessary cleaned.
Night mode + built-in eReader
Fans will be glad to check the presence of UC Browser in full mode for reading when all the elements of the application disappears from the screen, and the screen with a single tap in Night mode.
File Manager download manager +
About the extension already mentioned, and in addition to UC Browser boasts a built-in tool for working with files on device, and heaped up the loader, which can load data into multiple threads and resume downloads after reconnecting.
cool widget
Here is a tidy little thing on the left is set to the menu of instant access to the current functions of the browser and does not interfere with work.
Worth a try
It's hard to admit, but the favorite Chrome is not really the best. You're thinking that we have forgotten about the comparison of performance? No, I have not forgotten. But here, the Chrome, as well as other popular browsers, does not particularly distinguished, and often simply gives more optimized competitors.
- Synthetic benchmarks Kraken and SunSpider showed that UC Browser and Chrome work with JavaScript the same.
- Chrome on the overall performance slightly ahead, but this is, again, synthetics, and the reality here is mixed bunch of other factors.
- With HTML5 UC Browser friends much better.
- Cold front expected loading pages Chrome, or on a hot - UC Browser.
- Memory consumption at UC Browser and Chrome is the same at the start, but with the increasing number of Chrome tabs becomes twice as voracious.
Of course, the Google Play are many good browsers, each of which tries to lure the user something his. In any case, just to try them all, you will confidently be able to tell what's really found the best for the client itself, well, yours truly sit until at UC Browser.
