This article describes how to get started with Firefox for Android on tablets by describing the differences between the tablet and phone user experience (also known as [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_experience UX]). The Firefox for Android tablet user experience displays more controls in the top bar in order to take advantage of the larger screen size on tablets.
{note} '''Note:''' Tablets with screens smaller than 7" do not get the tablet user experience. Tablets smaller than 7" in screen size (including [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phablet phablets] like the Samsung Galaxy Note I, II and III) get the phone user experience; see [[Getting started with Firefox for mobile]]. {/note}
