The English language edition of UC Browser<\/a> has been updated to version 7.6 (press release<\/a>).<\/p>\n

It’s available now from wap.ucweb.com<\/a> for Symbian (S60 V1, V2, V3 and V5\/Symbian^3), Java MIDP2 and Windows Mobile 2003 or latter for both touchscreen and non-Touchscreen devices.<\/p>\n

The Android and iPhone versions of UC Browser have not been updated.\u00a0 7.6 in English for Android is expected in June or July of this year.<\/p>\n

I gave UC 7.6 a try on two devices at the opposite ends of the price\/performance spectrum, the $679 Nokia E7<\/a> Symbian superphone and a $50 Motorola WX400 Rambler<\/a> prepaid phone for Boost Mobile. The browser performed very well on both devices.<\/p>\n

On the E7, UC makes an interesting alternative to Opera Mini 5.1 or the Symbian browser. There are a lot of things to like about UC 7.6 on the E7. Some of my favorites include<\/p>\n
