Hi
Firefox Focus for Android is unavailable for this platform, but Firefox for Android is, which you may wish to install.
Firefox for Android has the same level of controls in it and is a more fully featured browser. This article explains the private browsing mode in Firefox for Android.

In my opinion half of firefox focus doesn't make sense than. It is lightweight, but yet it is only available for higher android OS, who don't need a lightweight OS, and can just use the normal firefox if they want.
In my opinion firefox focus should be for anything lower than android 5.0 Marshmellow, because phones with any of those OS's don't have much storage on them.
The speed is not usefull at all, because newer phones with newer OS's are already much faster, so you won't notice much.
And as you said the 'normal' firefox has the privacy feature in it to.
Conclusion: Firefox Focus is completely pointless, and doesn't need to exist. It could have been a great thing, but they have made very dumb decisions.
Hi
The technology that Firefox Focus for Android is based on will not run in a stable fashion on a lower Android version - but we are looking for alternatives and this may feature in a future release.
