If that is the case, then you should be pleased to know that there is a lightweight version that delivers the same premium web browsing experiences. The app is called Firefox Lite and despite being packed with tons of cool and useful features, Firefox Lite weighs in at less than 5 MB which makes it perfect for budget-smartphones.
