Why do gradients look so terrible?

I noticed that all websites do not look as good as they should, especially color gradations. They all look not smooth at all, almost look like GIF quality. I have opened the same webpages on different mobile Android browsers, and they all look good, but not in Firefox for Android. Is there a way to make images look better or "normal"?

That is because 16 bit color is used on Android.

I hope you mean 16 bit on the Firefox for android browser ONLY because on Crhome, Opera, Dolphin and even the stock browser for Android, they all use 32bit and they all look great! So my question is, why the hell would the Firefox for Android use 16 bit in the year 2012??? That is just plain supid!!!
