Can I run SmolLM2 135M on Google Pixel 10 Pro?
Yes. SmolLM2 135M runs on Google Pixel 10 Pro at Q4_K_M (~1 GB of ~10.5 GB usable).
Runs at Q4_K_M using ~1 GB of ~10.5 GB usable. You have room for FP16 for higher quality.
That figure is at a 4k context and moves about ±15% as context length changes. Google Pixel 10 Pro leaves ~9.5 GB of headroom, room to step up to FP16 for higher quality.

Running cost · estimate

- ~7 W
- Electricity / 1M tokens

- Pays for itself after
- ~1,998M tok
At ~$0.15/kWh and the estimated ~325 tok/s, a million generated tokens costs about $0 in electricity. Versus a hosted API at ~$0.5 per million tokens, the ~$999 Google Pixel 10 Pro pays for itself after roughly 1,998 million tokens, so local hardware is mostly a fixed cost, not a per-token one. TDP is the peak draw, so this is an upper bound. Assumptions.
How to run it
On Android use PocketPal AI (Polished app, download GGUF and run offline.).

FAQ
Can Google Pixel 10 Pro run SmolLM2 135M?
Yes. SmolLM2 135M runs on Google Pixel 10 Pro at Q4_K_M (~1 GB of ~10.5 GB usable).
How much memory does SmolLM2 135M need?
Google Pixel 10 Pro has room to spare. At Q4_K_M the weights are ~0.105 GB; with KV cache and runtime overhead, budget ~1 GB at a 4k context.
What is the best tool to run SmolLM2 135M 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.
