Can I run Mixtral 8x7B on Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra?
No. Mixtral 8x7B needs ~28.9 GB even at Q4_K_M, but Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra only has ~8.5 GB usable.
Needs ~28.9 GB even at Q4_K_M, but only ~8.5 GB is usable.
That figure is at a 4k context and moves about ±15% as context length changes.
The gap is about 20.4 GB: Mixtral 8x7B needs roughly 28.9 GB at Q4_K_M and Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra leaves only about 8.5 GB usable for a model. The lightest tracked hardware that runs Mixtral 8x7B is the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 (32GB) at 32 GB. See Mixtral 8x7B on Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 (32GB).

FAQ
Can Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra run Mixtral 8x7B?
No. Mixtral 8x7B needs ~28.9 GB even at Q4_K_M, but Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra only has ~8.5 GB usable.
How much memory does Mixtral 8x7B need?
Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra does not have enough memory. At Q4_K_M the weights are ~26.49 GB; with KV cache and runtime overhead, budget ~28.9 GB at a 4k context. It is a Mixture-of-Experts model (46.7B total / 12.9B active), so all experts must stay in memory; memory tracks total params, not active params.
What is the best tool to run Mixtral 8x7B 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.
