Can I run Qwen3-Coder 480B-A35B Instruct on Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra?
No. Qwen3-Coder 480B-A35B Instruct needs ~276.2 GB even at Q4_K_M, but Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra only has ~8.5 GB usable.
Needs ~276.2 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 267.7 GB: Qwen3-Coder 480B-A35B Instruct needs roughly 276.2 GB at Q4_K_M and Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra leaves only about 8.5 GB usable for a model. No single tracked device has enough memory; Qwen3-Coder 480B-A35B Instruct needs a multi-GPU or high-memory rig.

FAQ
Can Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra run Qwen3-Coder 480B-A35B Instruct?
No. Qwen3-Coder 480B-A35B Instruct needs ~276.2 GB even at Q4_K_M, but Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra only has ~8.5 GB usable.
How much memory does Qwen3-Coder 480B-A35B Instruct need?
Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra does not have enough memory. At Q4_K_M the weights are ~270.14 GB; with KV cache and runtime overhead, budget ~276.2 GB at a 4k context. It is a Mixture-of-Experts model (480B total / 35B active), so all experts must stay in memory; memory tracks total params, not active params.
What is the best tool to run Qwen3-Coder 480B-A35B Instruct 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.
