In the era of mobile Internet, the importance of mobile browser is self-evident. It has become a common tool for obtaining information, entertainment and shopping in the new era. However, with the increase of the number of users, more and more third-party mobile browsers begin to consume user time, and insert various information flows and interfaces that users do not want to see in the browser's home page. It is difficult for users to get an efficient online experience in this browsing environment. However, the contradiction is that if a mobile browser has too few functions and interfaces, it will be difficult to meet the further needs of users.

The balance of the browser becomes crucial because the functions should be rich but not affect the Internet experience. This time, our Lei Feng.com- Love to play computer games We took the lead in experiencing the 8.0 version of 360 mobile browser. On the premise of ensuring functional diversity, it focuses on functions. The video stream, information stream and search box are independent and do not interfere with each other. All light applications can be deleted, and users can be given the right to choose. This is the biggest feature of 360 mobile browser.

Function interface: rich in content but independent of each other

Hot spot, search, video, my four major items

In the low column of 360 mobile browser 8.0, there are four major items: hot spot, search, video, and my. Each item does not interfere with each other. Sliding the left and right screens can not switch between items, which reduces the number of users entering the information stream by mistake. The default home page after opening the browser is the search item (also called light desktop). What you see here is a very pure browser interface that is completely independent of the other three items. How pure is it? You don't add any navigation categories. It only has a search/URL input box, without any redundant interfaces and information flows.

360 mobile browser 8.0 integrates news information into the hot tab, and puts live and short videos in the video tab. On the home page, you can choose the interface of search box+light application, or the information news interface.

If you are a news enthusiast, you can set 360 mobile browser 8.0 as a news client; If you are a knowledge seeker, set it as a search client; If you are a video controller, you can use it as a video collection station. Independent modules also determine the convenience of customization.

Technical optimization: applet between App and HTML5

The so-called home page is actually a light desktop here. In addition to the search/web address input box in the top bar, users can add portal sites, social networking, life tools, videos, games and other navigation sites. Unlike other third-party browsers, these site applications are fully removable. You can either empty them or fill your light desktop.

Light desktop "applet"

This is also the biggest innovation of version 8.0 in terms of technology. It optimizes the previous web touch screen to a "applet" that is ready to use. The size of the applet is only a few hundred KB, and there is no installation process. After it can be added, we can use it directly on the light desktop. Its functions and interfaces are more like an app than a mobile web page.

In the actual use process, the author found that the applet has become a tool between the web side and the App side, which solves the problem that users do not need to download the applications they just need in low frequency. Imagine a scenario. When you eat in a restaurant, you just find that the restaurant has an activity on public reviews, and you can pay for it at a discount. If you were asked to download the app at that time, would you find it troublesome and give up? On the other hand, if you open 360 mobile browser 8.0 and click "Comment on takeaway" in the application, you can directly purchase coupons without logging in. Will it be much more convenient? Similarly, if it is offered by other platforms, it can be quickly obtained through 360 mobile browser 8.0, without having to download a full screen app. This may be the value of these light applications.

Although the small programs in the light desktop can not completely replace the App, for some apps that you don't usually use, it really saves you the trouble of downloading everything, thus saving mobile phone space and the time to obtain content in an emergency. What kind of light application can best reflect your personal habits.

Funny and interesting pan entertainment video content

The 360 mobile browser 8.0 has added live content, which is placed together with short videos at the bottom of the video bar. The content of the video is mainly funny, interesting, and beautiful, which is recommended and matched by the system and cannot be filtered. For users, it is difficult to adjust their tastes. It is entirely personal preference. The small video and live broadcast of pan entertainment may be more in line with the public's appetite, and some users may feel unpleasant, which is reasonable.

Overall, the gap between Chrome and Chrome is very small

360 Mobile Browser 8.0 Open Web Page

In addition to the above functional features, as a third-party mobile browser, operation and speed can be said to be the foundation of the browser. 360 mobile browser 8.0 may be due to the loading of its own kernel. The startup speed and web page loading speed are very fast. In the case of the same model, the same network speed, and the same web page, 360 mobile browser 8.0 and Chrome will win or lose each other. The gap between the two is very small.

360 mobile browser version 8.0 has rich functions, but the functions do not interfere with each other and perform their own duties. You can use it as a pure light browser, or you can switch between hot spots, applets, and videos. This is a user oriented product use mode. This model can be applied to a wide range of user needs, but it may also lose a small number of users who have high requirements for product focus. This is a question that needs to be weighed. 360 leaves the answer to this question to users to choose. No perfect product is like no perfect person.
