Can I run Gemma 4 E4B on Google Pixel 9 Pro?
Yes. Gemma 4 E4B runs on Google Pixel 9 Pro at Q4_K_M (~6.5 GB of ~10.5 GB usable).
Runs at Q4_K_M using ~6.5 GB of ~10.5 GB usable. You have room for Q8_0 for higher quality.
That figure is at a 4k context and moves about ±15% as context length changes. Google Pixel 9 Pro leaves ~4 GB of headroom, room to step up to Q8_0 for higher quality.

Weights are measured from GGUF files; KV cache and overhead are computed, so totals can vary ~15% with context and runtime. Any tok/s is a bandwidth estimate. See methodology.
