In general terms, QQ Messenger surprised us for various reasons: first, it features a nicely designed interface with cute buttons and icons, which is hard to find in IM clients second, it has interesting extra features that make it a complete communication tool and third, it's amazing how such a popular program with more than a billion users is still known by so few people over here! QQ Messenger is mainly a tool for chat, but it can also be used to help your friends or customers thanks to its integrated Remote assistance tool: a basic remote control app that grants you access to your friend's desktop and enables you to help them with any computer issue.

The only thing that didn't work for us was downloading more themes from the Web.

The program also includes a wide selection of avatars and personal pictures to choose from, but if you don't like any of them, simply upload one from your hard drive. You can customize almost anything, from choosing a skin for the interface to selecting the font for your messages. Another area where QQ Messenger stands out is personalization. You'll be able to capture an area of your screen or record a short video clip on the spot, and share both of them instantly with your contacts. There's one important difference however: in QQ Messenger you hardly find any ads!īesides the traditional IM tools, QQ Messenger also includes some not-so-common features. There are the typical contacts list – which you can organize by groups - support for voice and video chats, smileys, nudges, ability to send photos and share files (with support for pause/resume!), and other utilities we're used to finding in IM clients. The truth is that QQ Messenger is not that different from other IM clients you may have used.

With more than one billion registered accounts, QQ Messenger is now more than just a simple IM client: it's a whole social phenomenon that millions of people use on a daily basis, and an essential part of their lives.
