Though Firefox on Android has improved a lot with the recent quantum update, you can still feel it's a little laggy as compared to Chrome.

Specifically, scrolling on Firefox feels very laggy. Also, Firefox doesn't play videos on same tab. That becomes very frustrating.

Are you sure you're using Quantum? Quantum isn't in Firefox 57 for mobile, you need the beta 58 for Quantum.

Huh, I didn't know this. I felt Firefox 56 -> 57 was a major improvement in Android too, and was sure this was due to Quantum. I wonder now if that was just placebo.

It wasn't just placebo, some parts of Quantum made it in to 57 mobile, just not everything.
