This new version of Firefox is said to have many new features along with the best of Firefox 4. Let us review each aspect associated with this new upcoming browser, the latest addition to the browser family by Mozilla.

1.) Better Updating For Add-On

Mozilla Firefox 5 Feature Add on

Add-ons have become the heart and soul of Firefox because the vast variety of add-ons allow user to do what they want to and all this is done so perfectly that it leaves a smile on user’s face. The new browser intends to have efficient updating method, because not all versions are compatible with the browser.

2.) Efficient Sync

A feature that has become a requirement for everyone because the tech life is not limited to PC or laptops but extends to Mobile phones and the Tablets. The this new efficient sync with user’s data would allow the user to sync all their PC as well as Mobile browser’s data with a user friendly interface as well as a unique way.

3.) Pinning of Favorites Sites

Mozilla Firefox 5 Feature Pinning Sites

Pin your favorites websites to taskbar or desktop, which is restricted to tabs only in the Firefox 4. This new feature was seen firstly in the IE9 but Firefox have gone a step ahead and claimed that Firefox 5 will make list of links to be included and will be displayed as a dropdown on the pinned area.

4.) No More Home Button

Mozilla-Firefox 5-Feature-Home-Button

It rumored that Firefox will have a whole tab designated to the Homepage instead of just a button. There is no reason I can think of that would justify this new integration but let us hope that the developer team will have a good explanation.

5.) Color-Coded Search Bars

Color coding of search engines, this is not something that will make you stop in the tracks but being a small tweak it will definitely make your searches easy and distinct. You would be able to choose the search engine of your own with great ease.

6.) More Excellent Social Sharing

The sharing has become an addiction so for simplifying this addiction Firefox will have a newspaper plane in the address bar and will give easy access to sharing with Digg, Twitter, Facebook etc.

7.) PDF and Music Compatibility

Mozilla Firefox 5 Feature-PDF and Music compatibility

This new version is expected to have compatibility with not only PDF docs but other formats also and this time it seems that it is going to come with a musical version which can play sound file with more extensions than playing just the MP3.

8.) Multiple Logins

Till now this feature was achieved by using either an add-on or using 2 browsers or the account provider (Gmail), but now Firefox 5 will have an inbuilt feature which will allow us to login to multiple accounts on the same site.

9.) Uploading Tracker

Mozilla-Firefox 5-Feature-Indicator-tracking-file-uploads

Mozilla Firefox 5 Feature-Indicator tracking file uploads

As we have a proper bar window for keeping a track of what we download then why not we have something to keep track of what we upload, this time Firefox have included this feature which will allow us to keep track of the files we have uploaded as a popped up status bar.

10) Feature that Might Be Included

Even though Firefox has become the favorite browser of users but still it’s not perfect because it’s not available for all. There has been a partiality when it comes to the devices for which Firefox is made and it leaves out the most popular ones tablets, windows phones and the iPhone. We want more devices to be integrated with this browser and it is rumored that this will be done soon.

Let us know about your thoughts about Firefox 5.

      and what is your better alternative? I compared several times FF with Chrome and have found out consistently that FF uses less memory even with multiple ad-ons installed and at least 10 tabs open (heavy on flash and javascript)
      I tried and tried to make sense to why some prefer Chrome over FF and still can’t understand. FF is so many more times more versatile than the other browsers, Chrome is only a tad faster

      The longer relies on the underlying perating system for text layout/shaping instead it uses harf buzz this allows for smart open type layout/shaping which is consistent across different operating systems.Thanks for sharing informative post. Regards, web design Alabama

  4. Norb Winslow says:

    Social Sharing is neccessary nowadays. I hope Firefox would intergrate facebook functions, like what rockmelt did. Besides, Firefox should develop a faster and lightweight browser to compete with Chrome.

    • Wrong says:

      This is utter poop. Social Sharing is, in no way, *neccessary* nowadays.

      Why have FireFox tie themselves to Facebook just because *you* use it. That is exactly the sort of reason that addons was invited for.

  5. Doh says:

    Mark you noob FF 4 uses more memory because its designed to use more memory but only when memory is available. Newer computers come with at least 4 gb of ram and can afford to let FF use more memory so ff takes advantage of it.. i have been using ff for ages.. but i must say IE 9 is the best browser Microsoft has pushed out to date. but i still use FF because of the addons and good security.

  6. Achyutam says:

    have been using FF4 everything’s gr8 but when when i start FF for the first time after logging in , it takes awful lot of time where as chrome take no time at all :(

  7. Andy Walpole says:

    There’s not much to be excited about on that list is there.
    It should be called version 4.1 rather than 5. To do so gives the update more importance than it deserves

    I only recently upgraded to firefox 4x from the previous 3.6x version I think it was. I can’t say I am loving it, but it isn’t too bad. I’m sure they will work a few bugs out of it in months to come. Firefox has been the best browser for me I always look forward to new stable releases. The war of the browsers I guess we are in. Between mozilla, ms, and google fighting for popularity hopefully it brings many more features, performance, and speed to us end users.

    SO i’m still using firefox 3 because of addons..!!
    But firefox 5 seems to amazing features..!!
    waiting for the release..!!
    thanks for sharing..!!

  12. Mike says:

    I’ve been using FF4 pretty much since they launched it. It’s good. Nice UI, easy to use and quick loading.

    I don’t like the idea of social network tie ins and remembering passwords etc. My pc is shared so I don’t want anyone coming along and logging into my online banking or something instantly. Each to their own however as this would make some peoples lives easier.

  13. The user interface is completely redesigned and optimized for small screens, the controls are hidden away so that only the web content is shown on screen, and it uses touchscreen interaction methods. Thanks.

  14. Study abroad says:

    Its functions can be added through extensions, created by third party developers, of which there is a wide selection, a feature that has attracted many of fire foxs users. Thanks a lot.

    Appears that I have been missing out. Been a Safari surfer for awhile now, probably time to change it up. Plus I really dislike how Safari doesn’t have any in-browser html editing tool… I usually only hop on FF the Firebug tool to make simple visual edits on my Circle Lenses website. I suppose that I might as well use FF completely, can’t wait for more releases!
