Can I run Ornith 1.5 35B-A3B on Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra (16GB, 1TB config)?
No. Ornith 1.5 35B-A3B needs ~22.4 GB even at Q4_K_M, but Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra (16GB, 1TB config) only has ~12 GB usable.
Needs ~22.4 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 10.4 GB: Ornith 1.5 35B-A3B needs roughly 22.4 GB at Q4_K_M and Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra (16GB, 1TB config) leaves only about 12 GB usable for a model. The lightest tracked hardware that runs Ornith 1.5 35B-A3B is the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090 (24GB) at 24 GB. See Ornith 1.5 35B-A3B on Nvidia GeForce RTX 4090 (24GB).

FAQ
Can Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra (16GB, 1TB config) run Ornith 1.5 35B-A3B?
No. Ornith 1.5 35B-A3B needs ~22.4 GB even at Q4_K_M, but Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra (16GB, 1TB config) only has ~12 GB usable.
How much memory does Ornith 1.5 35B-A3B need?
Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra (16GB, 1TB config) does not have enough memory. At Q4_K_M the weights are ~20.22 GB; with KV cache and runtime overhead, budget ~22.4 GB at a 4k context. It is a Mixture-of-Experts model (35B total / 3B active), so all experts must stay in memory; memory tracks total params, not active params.
What is the best tool to run Ornith 1.5 35B-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.
