UCWeb has released UC Browser HD 3.0 for Android, featuring major upgrades to this specially designed for big screens mobile browser. In particular, UC Browser HD 3.0 has been developed to bring perfect support for video and gesture control on tablets (and phablets).

According to a new study from technology research firm Gartner, Android tablet sales grew 127% in 2013 and overtook iOS to become the best selling tablet OS with 62% of the market share. With the number of Android tablet users growing rapidly, UCWeb is continuing to focus efforts on providing them with the best possible browsing experience.


With UC Browser HD 3.0, the developers at UCWeb took into consideration hardware specifications and usage scenarios that are unique to tablets. The result is a browser that is uniquely suited for big screen devices. With a gesture controlled video player and gesture controlled browsing, as well as intelligent text zoom, page preloader and cloud sync capability, UC Browser HD 3.0 will truly bring out the benefits of having a big screen device.


With so many different video sites on the web, each with its own video player and ways to adjust volume, playback and settings, it can be frustrating dealing with all the variety. UC Browser HD 3.0’s video player replaces all of these and presents you with a unified video playing experience. It detects the videos on a web page and activates the built-in player which offers you gesture control over the video you’re playing. Volume, brightness and playback progress of the video can be adjusted with a single finger slide. For instance, you can turn down/up the volume by sliding your finger vertically on the right side of the screen.
