Can't get Firefox on Chromebook

I have a Lenovo Chromebook, (Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 Chromebook | 14 Inch FHD Laptop | MediaTek Kompanio 520 | 4GB RAM | 64GB eMMC | Chrome OS | Abyss Blue) version is 129, and Firefox will not download, I have tried doing this from the Play store and even though I click to "download to this device" it keeps downloading the smartphone app which is no use to me, I really need the full app please. I have also downloaded the Linux beta Firefox and again it's the smartphone one. I have spent hours and hours and hours on this, please help.

Kind regards Polly.

The Android version of Firefox is made with tablets and phones in mind as there is no version for desktop/laptop.

The Firefox for Windows, macOS and Linux is made for desktop/laptop and not phone.

TyDraniu, yes i did that and it just downloaded the smartphone version again. Looks like I can't get unfortunately, I have had to buy a cheap second hand laptop. Thank you everyone for the replies, future lesson learned, never buy a Chromebook ha ha.
