Can I run GLM-5.2 on Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra (16GB, 1TB config only)?
No. GLM-5.2 needs ~473.1 GB even at Q4_K_M, but Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra (16GB, 1TB config only) only has ~12 GB usable.
Needs ~473.1 GB even at Q4_K_M, but only ~12 GB is usable.
That figure is at a 4k context and moves about ±15% as context length changes.
The gap is about 461.1 GB: GLM-5.2 needs roughly 473.1 GB at Q4_K_M and Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra (16GB, 1TB config only) leaves only about 12 GB usable for a model. No single tracked device has enough memory; GLM-5.2 needs a multi-GPU or high-memory rig.

FAQ
Can Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra (16GB, 1TB config only) run GLM-5.2?
No. GLM-5.2 needs ~473.1 GB even at Q4_K_M, but Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra (16GB, 1TB config only) only has ~12 GB usable.
How much memory does GLM-5.2 need?
Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra (16GB, 1TB config only) does not have enough memory. At Q4_K_M the weights are ~465.83 GB; with KV cache and runtime overhead, budget ~473.1 GB at a 4k context. It is a Mixture-of-Experts model (744B total / 40B active), so all experts must stay in memory; memory tracks total params, not active params.
What is the best tool to run GLM-5.2 on Android?
On Android, PocketPal AI (Polished app, download GGUF and run offline.) is the go-to option. NPU acceleration is limited and chip-specific; most apps run on CPU. Expect 1B-4B class.

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.
