If you are using an Android phone, you must be familiar with ugly Facebook app. But after a long time Facebook for Android app has been updated.  If not better, it has come more closer to its iPhone counterpart.

Facebook official announcement about this update.

The latest version of Facebook for Android is now available! The app has a number of notable new features, including: video playback, the ability to view and RSVP for events, respond to friend requests without leaving the app, and an updated home page. The new home page has a draggable notifications drawer, a photo reel for easy viewing of your friends’ photos and videos, and the ability to post a status update or search for friends with just one click.

If you already have Facebook for Android installed on your device, you’ll be prompted that the updated app is now available. Any Android device owner can download and install the latest version from the Android Market as well. Please let us know what you think about this latest version.

Today I updated Facebook for Android app on my HTC Desire and is working  great.  However I didn’t like notifications behavior as clicking on it redirects to browser instead of opening it in side app and Facebook Chat feature is still missing.

Update: Version 1.3.1 is now available in market.

Hi folks, we just released an updated version of the Facebook for Android app (version 1.3.1) that includes a fix for the battery drain problem some of you were running into. The app is now available in Android Market. You may need to wait a little bit for Android Market to send out the update notification. Thanks for all the quick feedback and thanks for your patience as we got this bug fixed!
