Been using the Quantum version (now FF 57) for a while and I am really impressed with its performance and polished UI. The webpages rendereing must more quicker than the old versions, scrolling is smoother and the Chrome takes less space, giving more to the web page. This is definitely a great release for Firefox and I am sure more improvement to follow. Onwards and upwards!
Pros:
UI, Speed
Cons:
None

I would really love to switch from chrome and try it but I can't really stand their developer console :(

A month or so ago I set up Epichrome SSBs for sites I wanted to use standalone and/or with Chrome extensions (Gmail+Mixmax, Asana, Hubspot, GDocs…), and moved to Safari as my browser.
I then use Choosy (http://choosyosx.com) to route clicks to the right places (docs.google.com* to my GDocs SSB, etc., then all the rest to Safari).
Took a bit of tinkering but now I feel like I have the benefits of the flexibility of Chrome and the speed and built-in-Appleyness of Safari.
Now then, should FF Quantum replace Safari? Not likely…

Firefox Quantum is always the Firefox I wanted. I wish more people adopt it and support the open-source drive Mozilla has always infused in us.
Pros:
It's fierce and fast. Always the Firefox that I wanted and the new Screenshots tool has made it even better. I should say I love it now!
Cons:
It's reported by a few that Firefox Quantum is using a lot of memory. I don't speak on the tech front, but this could be changed if true.
I am an advanced Chrome user and lover. After years, I used FireFox for the first time and I must say, they have done some magic this time.
Currently, I have both Chrome and FF installed on my computer and one needs to go away in next 96 hours. Let's see who stays. :)
I moved to chrome about an year ago as Firefox was not only slowing down my PC but also productivity. I just used Firefox Quantum and I can tell this is way powerful browser than Chrome and I preparing to switch back just finding my Chrome extensions in Firefox now!
P.s. It's Drone fired on Chrome not shots at Google Chrome!

Pretty impressive that Firefox loads Google Login faster than Chrome :)
