A reason to favor Mozilla is because they are acting in the public
interest.
HTML5 is just a means to that end.
Google, Apple, and Microsoft are acting in their own interest with their
smartphone products.
There's a secondary minor technical reason which is that Mozilla doesn't
have the overhead of a JVM or a CLR in the way. So, eventually, it will
probably be faster than at least the Android or Windows products and
consume less energy.
