Firefox for Android is STILL NOT compatible with Samsung Galaxy Ace

 This is what the Mozilla blog said yesterday about the newly added support for the armv6 processors. You can see that the post clearly mentions the Samsung Galaxy Ace.

But when you head happily to the Play Store to install Firefox you will be greeted by Google saying that the Galaxy Ace is not compatible(See the pic below).

'GT-s5830' is the Samsung's Model Number for Galaxy Ace. Why did this happen when the guys at Mozilla clearly mentions the phone?.

Turns out the guys didn't do their home work on the internals of Galaxy Ace. Firefox for Android added support for ARMV6 but not for phones with RAM less than 512MB. Sadly our Galaxy Ace has only 278MB. It did not meet the minimum requirement and hence is incompatible. See the 'Whats new' section of the Firefox app below.

800MHz was fine with the Ace but 512MB RAM pushed the phone out. But the Galaxy Ace Plus, Ace 2 and Ace Duos users are at luck here.

I hope the guys at Mozilla would promptly lift the RAM requirement and would let use the Best browser available out there.
