Can I run Nemotron 3 Nano 30B-A3B on Google Pixel 10 Pro?
No. Nemotron 3 Nano 30B-A3B needs ~25.1 GB even at Q4_K_M, but Google Pixel 10 Pro only has ~10.5 GB usable.
Needs ~25.1 GB even at Q4_K_M, but only ~10.5 GB is usable.
That figure is at a 4k context and moves about ±15% as context length changes.
The gap is about 14.6 GB: Nemotron 3 Nano 30B-A3B needs roughly 25.1 GB at Q4_K_M and Google Pixel 10 Pro leaves only about 10.5 GB usable for a model. The lightest tracked hardware that runs Nemotron 3 Nano 30B-A3B is the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 (32GB) at 32 GB. See Nemotron 3 Nano 30B-A3B on Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 (32GB).

FAQ
Can Google Pixel 10 Pro run Nemotron 3 Nano 30B-A3B?
No. Nemotron 3 Nano 30B-A3B needs ~25.1 GB even at Q4_K_M, but Google Pixel 10 Pro only has ~10.5 GB usable.
How much memory does Nemotron 3 Nano 30B-A3B need?
Google Pixel 10 Pro does not have enough memory. At Q4_K_M the weights are ~22.96 GB; with KV cache and runtime overhead, budget ~25.1 GB at a 4k context. It is a Mixture-of-Experts model (30B total / 3.5B active), so all experts must stay in memory; memory tracks total params, not active params.
What is the best tool to run Nemotron 3 Nano 30B-A3B 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.
