Firefox For Tablets [Preview]

August 31st, 2011

We have the very primary, first glimpse of the Firefox UI for tablets.
Mozilla UI team had always been open in sharing their final mockups which go in development. Previously, we have seen the upcoming UI of Firefox for Desktop and now we have some UI mockups of Firefox for Tablets.

The team describes this version of Firefox for tablet as an evolutionary browser interface. Looking at these UI you too would agree that it looks sleek and much more comfortable if most of your internet surfing happens on mobile devices.

Check the UI mock ups and let us know your views. » Read more: Firefox For Tablets [Preview]
