Samsung ChatON Updated To Version 3.0

Samsung’s ChatON messenger application has been updated to version 3.0 and also received a complete UI overhaul. The new UI style is based on Android’s HOLO UI, which appears to flatten the skin of the old UI. It can be compared to a pancake, as opposed to the decidedly iOS-style look that was previously featured.

Users can now change the background wallpaper of My Page, ChatON’s social network-style profile page, and add videos, images, and locations to other profiles via the PostON feature. The new version also includes the ability to share content from LIVEpartners, Samsung’s partner news and entertainment sites, directly to other ChatON users. It looks like Samsung is really pushing the social networking angle here.

Aside from the above mentioned, there’s also a big fix for the push service. Enjoy the new look if you’re a regular ChatON user, and if you’re not, remember that you can disable bloatware via the Settings>Apps menu on Android 4.0 and higher.

Here is a quick overview of the features and improvements:

• The new UI design helps you to use ChatON in an easier and simpler way.
• You can change the background of My page as you want and upload multimedia contents such as images, videos, and location information on PostON.
• Share a variety of news from LIVEpartners with your ChatON buddies.
• Abnormal stop issue when using Samsung Push Service v1.2.2 or above has been resolved.
