I Didn't understand what this means "Installation requires about 16 MB internal storage and 512 MB of RAM" is it is about the available RAM on the device or simply the manufactures specification about the phone ? I want to know which lower end Sony Xperia mobiles are compatible with Firefox. I didn't see any Sony Xperia Mobiles (Not Sony Ericsson) on the supported list. What is the case of Sony Xperia Miro & Sony Xperia Tipo ?

Howdy!

According to the Firefox for Android System Requirements System Requirements:

Firefox requires Android 2.2 or later and an ARMv7 processor. Installation requires about 17 MB internal or SD card storage. Firefox runs best on devices with at least 512 MB of RAM - from my understanding, 512 MB of total RAM.

Also, according to another similar question similar question posted on the forums, Firefox supposedly runs on Ericson Xperia X10, but not on the Xperia X10 Mini.

I'm not sure about the Miro or Tipo though, someone else might be able to chime in. :)
