Firefox Mobile review

Overall we were very impressed with Firefox Mobile.

It has carried the secure, stable functions of the desktop across to mobile devices with hardly a hitch and we feel it currently offers the benchmark for mobile browsing.

Of course, there are some small flaws but this is surely to be expected when undertaking something this ambitious. At this stage though we feel that for day-to-day usage it just can’t be beaten and with Maemo’s default browser taking care of your Flash needs, you needn’t miss out on anything you’ve become used to on your workstation. We look forward to seeing how it carries itself on other platforms and devices later in the year.

RE:

Well Firefox has already captured a huge market share in the desktop browser market.In the next few days, they will start their endeavor to capture the mobile browser share, by releasing "Fennec", the web browser for mobile phones and Internet tablets.Opera Mini is still the market leader in the mobile browser segment.Now it would be an interesting battle between Opera and Fennec.

Highly overrated in my opinion.

I will admit, I didn't use Firefox extensively on the N900, but based on my experience, any advantages to using it over the (excellent) built-in browser were largely mitigated by the slow rendering speed and horrendous startup times.<br>

I think 5/6 stars is a very generous score considering it's practically worthless in its current state.
