This should be fixed in the latest Nightly by the version bump in https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/firefox-android/pull/4312, and was just uplifted to Beta yesterday in https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/firefox-android/pull/4322.

I have verified this issue on the latest Beta 120.0b5 (Build ID: 2015983402) and the latest Nightly 121.0a1 (Build ID: 2015983559) on OnePlus 8 Pro with Android 13.

• The Sponsored and Non-Sponsored results are correctly triggered if the keywords contain an uppercase character.
