UC Browser 8.0
The UC Browser 8.0 Beta was released this week. It’s a pretty big update, especially in look and feel. Here’s how UC describes the new version:”
Beautiful looks – Beauty is not the patent of iPhone or Android phones, Java phone could also make it. The classical black gives you a cool tech style.
More efficient – In UC 8.0 Beta for Java.We optimized the interface layout and menus, you can find the useful features easily.
Magical action function – When you operate on Windows via PC, it’s convenient to choose what you want in the right mouse botton menu. The right mouse button in different places, then the popup menus are different. In the same philosophy, UC Browser knows what you want when you stop at a place and gives the most convenient options to choose. Otherwise, U can press shortcut ‘1’ to start this funtion more conveniently. When you move to different elements,the actions re different.
Not only beautiful, but also intelligent – Do you still think excellent user experience is just belong to high-end phones? Ucweb said no. We think A good Browser is what can provide good browsing to all users.”
The new interface is a shameless copy of Opera Mini 5.0 and later but other than that I like the new version. All the sites I tried; including Twitter, Dabr, Facebook and Gmail loaded without error, looked good and worked well.

Bolt also shut the forums down on Bolt Space and does not make any comments on their Facebook page .
It really makes me wonder if Bitstream will be around next year . 🙁
Bitstream’s main business is fonts which AFAIK is profitable. They are merging with Monotype, another font company and shedding un-profitable products like Bolt. I think they will survive
A very urgent message to DENNIS- I recieved an message connected to ‘BOLT LITE’- 12/14 will no longer be free! As this the wave of all Boost Apps. Something has to be DONE RIGHT NOW HELP!
Yes Bolt is being discontinued see Bolt Browser Discontinued! Servers To Shut Down In 2 Days for more information. There’s really nothing you or I can do as its a business decision by Bolt’s pulisher.
This only affects Bolt, Opera Mini and UC Browser are still free.
Dennis- the new UC Browser 8.0 Doesn’t work on my i465-I get an error sign. and I notified you before- Picomail 2.3 is ready to download!
UC browser only works on CDMA phones, it says so in the post. Picomail 2.3 will be posted today.
on the i465 uc browser 6.3 is the only version i know works just so u know
6.3 doesn’t work on my i776 but this one does: Updated: UCWEB 6.7 With English Server
i correct myself i meant 6.7 not 6.3 sorry
Runs great on my juno.. However, I wouldn’t say it’s much of an impovement over the current opera. I’ll probably stick with the browser I know.
