    The BlackBerry browser is better than Firefox. Don't worry about it, make the switch.

    You can side load the Android Firefox non-armv6 version 20.0 and it works great on my Z30:
    Index of /pub/mozilla.org/mobile/releases/20.0/android
    Choose your language and then download the "fennec-20.0.<language>.android-arm.apk" and then load it via your preferred method.

    You can have any browsers bookmarks using this Xmarks. Just export your xmarks bookmarks to an html file, tranfer it to your Z30, open the html file with File Manager then set it as your start page in your BB Browser. I've used this for years. The only problem is when you make any changes to your bookmarks in your browswer, you have to re-export another html file and put it on your BB.

    A big plus if your're running 10.2.1. is you can use Snap to download the Xmarks app and your good to go.

    Xmarks is available in bbw, no need for snap. But... I want my bookmarks where they should be i.e. in the browser not another application for storing bookmarks. It is just wrong way. Why it is not possible for xmarks to sync bookmarks and add them to the blackberry browser in headless mode. I just don't get it.

    Pragma, try to use x-marks bookmarklets (if that's even a thing, I personally don't use x-marks). I use the Lastpass (same company) bookmarklets in the BlackBerry Browser and it's almost like the addon for desktop Firefox!

    Firefox looks really good. Tried several sites and was really impressed. I'm even replying to this post using Firefox on my Z30. However, try loading an Uberflip magazine and Firefox stalls (the BB10 browser works): Digital Publishing and Page Turn Software | Uberflip

    Well, the BlackBerry browser is awfully hard to beat. It is outstanding. Scores 489 instead of Firefox's 443 on html5 test. The browser from OS10.3 is even better.

    I just use the Firefox browser if I need a bookmark from work.

    I also have the Evolution and Alpha browsers. Just checked them all on HTML5test, and Evolution scored 494.

    Looking forward to the BB10.3 browser!
