- Motorola is rolling out the Gemini Nano AI model to the Edge 50 Ultra.
- The Motorola Edge 50 Ultra is the brand’s first smartphone to support Google’s on-device LLM.
- Currently, Gemini Nano helps Magic Compose run on-device in the Google Messages app.
Your favorite AI chatbot relies on a large language model (LLM) that is far too large to run on your smartphone, but that doesn’t mean your phone can’t run a LLM at all. In fact, there are versions of popular LLMs that have been trimmed down so much that they can run locally on mobile devices, with the trade-off being they’re more limited in their complexity. Gemini Nano, for example, is the mobile-optimized version of the Google Gemini LLM, and it can be found on a handful of phones from Google, Samsung, and Xiaomi. Now, Gemini Nano is coming to phones from Motorola.
When I shared the news last week that Gemini Nano is coming to the Xiaomi 14T, one of my followers on X who goes by the username Nhyphk reached out to me to tell me that his Motorola phone also received the AI model. After a bit of back and forth, I was able to confirm that Gemini Nano is indeed rolling out to his Motorola phone, the Motorola Edge 50 Ultra.
