It should be impossible for an iPhone 17 Pro to run a gigantic 400B AI model. Ought

by

The iPhone 17 Pro has 12 GB of unified memory. It is a very decent figure for a mobile phone, but in theory absolutely insufficient to run large AI models locally. And therein lies the surprise: a new project has made it possible for this mobile phone to run locally a model with 400,000 million parameters (400B). And that opens the doors to a promising horizon. Giant AI model, dwarf memory. A developer named Daniel Woods (@dandeveloper) has created, thanks to AI, a new inference engine called Flash-MoE whose code has been published as Open Source on GitHub accompanied by a study about his behavior. woods managed to run locally the Qwen 3.5 397B model (the full version, without distillation or quantization) on your MacBook Pro with 48 GB of RAM. Downloaded the model (209 GB on disk) and developed that inference engine to achieve something that seemed almost impossible. Other developers have gone even further and have managed to run models like DeepSeek-V3 (671B) or even Kimi K2.5 (1.026B!!) on their MacBooks. The speed is slow, no doubt, but they work, they work. It’s amazing. iPhone 17 Pro is capable of running a 400B model. Another developer called Anemll wanted to go a little further and try to run this model with almost 400,000 million parameters on his iPhone 17 Pro with 12 GB of RAM… and he succeeded. It is true that the model is very slow in responses (0.6 tokens per second, very unusable), but achieving something like this opens the doors to a future in which video or unified memory is no longer so critical to be able to use huge AI models locally. a few hours ago doubled the speed at 1.1 tokens per second, reducing the number of experts to four (2.5% quality loss in responses). It is still not entirely usable, but the technical demonstration is evident. Another user has preferred to use a somewhat smaller model (Qwen 3.5 35B) but still huge for the iPhone, and has already managed to get it to run locally at about more than acceptable 13.1 tokens per second. Why it matters. The AI ​​models we use in the cloud (ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude) are gigantic and run in data centers with thousands of chips and enormous amounts of memory and storage. They are the most powerful because they run on the most powerful machines. Although it is possible to use AI models locally, the models that we can run are much smaller and that makes it difficult for them to behave equally well both in quality of responses and in their speed or precision. This method opens the door to a future in which even on “modest” machines it is possible to run giant AI models that give better answers and allow us to avoid using models in the cloud. Apple already warned. Three years ago a group of Apple researchers published the study ‘LLM in a flash‘ which precisely pointed to that: to run AI models locally it would be possible not only to take advantage of the unified memory of Macs, but also their storage units. The speed would be slow, yes, but this would open up the possibility of running gigantic models locally on machines with much smaller amounts of unified memory. Woods used Claude Code with Claude Opus 4.6 and applied the new methodology “autoresearch” by Andrej Karpathy to implement Flash-MoE based on that research. The result is really promising. Video memory was everything. On my Mac mini M4, for example, I have 16 GB of unified memory. This means that with tools like Ollama you can install and run models like Qwen 3.5 4B locally with some fluidity, but 7B models or others like gpt-oss 20B would be much slower in responding (or would get stuck altogether). Video memory (or unified on Apple devices) is the most important parameter when running local models, both in terms of quantity and bandwidth. If you want to use them fluidly, that’s the limiting factor. It is possible to use “regular” RAM, but the speeds when using it are reduced so drastically that it is often better not to use that option at all. If you have a fast SSD, you have a treasure. Now the limiting factor is our SSD drive, since the model uses it as if it were a kind of substitute for video memory. And the faster the SSD drive on our computer, the better. There is good news here, because lately we are seeing how PCIe 5.0 drives they achieve about 15 GB/s without too many problems, and that speed already gives enough room for maneuver to use much larger AI models locally than we could use before. A promising future for local (and more private) AI. This discovery is really striking for everyone who wants to use AI locally, because it allows you to use huge models without having to make a huge investment in the latest generation graphics cards or, for example, in a Mac with a lot of unified memory: a Mac Studio M3 Ultra with 512 GB of memory, for example, costs more than 10,000 euros. With this new method we could opt for a much cheaper machine that, with a good SSD unit, would allow us to use giant models in a fairly decent way. Not as fast as those other options, sure, but still very decent. It’s a notable step forward in enjoying the benefits of running local AI models, including the biggest of them all: privacy. With this type of local execution, our conversations and everything we tell the chatbot stays on our machine, it does not end up on the servers of companies like Google, OpenAI, Meta or Anthropic.

Huawei has had half the West against it for six years. Your answer is the Mate 80 Pro

by

The market had been warning for some time: Huawei was going to return. Google’s veto United States ostracized to a Chinese company that was taken as a scapegoat at the dawn of the current trade war. What was initially a blow has ended in a big comeback leading he domestic market with more than 18% share. and he Huawei Mate 80 Pro It is another example that the brand does not want us to forget about its mobile phones outside of China. There are a couple of very important asterisks. In short. We told it a few days ago: Huawei’s best feature has been neither its technological innovation nor its investment to give wings to the Chinese foundry. His best quality has been resilience. That translates to 880 billion yuan (about $127 billion). registered in 2025. Put in context, it is the company’s second best year after the glorious 2020 in which it hugged Samsung and Apple and in which it achieved 891,000 million yuan (129,000 million dollars). And it has achieved this by looking at the local market, building an ecosystem under the name of HarmonyOS (something that is very popular in China, and Xiaomi is an example of this) and managing to be in all parts of the business. Huawei was no longer just consumer technology: it was home automation and even cars. The Western blow pushed not the reinvention of a company that was already on that path, but rather to seek that goal more ardently. And it seems that they are moving, again, outside their borders. Mate 80 Pro. In Spain we have continued receiving Huawei devices. For example, smart watches are some of the best you can buy – we just published our review of the Huawei Watch GT Runner 2-, in headphones they have models as interesting as the FreeClip 2 and we have continued receiving tablets and some mobile phones like the Huawei Pure 80 or the Mate X7a foldable. However, not all of them arrived and the Mate 80 Pro, the company’s spearhead, seemed trapped in China. In a recent presentation that we were able to attend in Madrid, Huawei has shown a slide in which it confirms the price in euros of the Huawei Mate 80 Pro, a mobile phone with a 6.75-inch OLED screen, with 8,000 nits of brightnesswith its own Kirin 9030 processor and a triplet of cameras made up of: 50 Mpx main with variable aperture from f/1.4 to f/4.0. 40 Mpx wide angle. 48 Mpx 4x telephoto with an impressive f/2.1 aperture. They have not talked about markets, yes. No concessions. The price? 1,299 euros that are a declaration of intentions. In the analysis of the Huawei Mate X7 we have seen that the performance of that chip is more similar to that of a mid-range than that of a TOP range. It is commendable that they have managed to develop it without being able to access the resources of the West – of ASMLmainly-, but it is not a processor for a 1,300 euro mobile. It also doesn’t have 5G at this point. However, in the rest of the sections in which they can innovate and grow as they did before the veto, they are doing so. 100 W charging, cameras that promise a lot, good storage speed and screens to match. It’s a “here we are, we continue making high-end mobile phones”, a declaration of intent and a kind of “because I can”. The reality: it’s complicated. However, there is no denying the elephant in the room: the Huawei Mate 80 Pro, no matter how good it looks, still cannot natively access Google mobile services. It is no longer not being able to install your apps, but others that depend on those GMS They won’t work on the phone. It’s a huge concession for many users, but it may not sound so bad to others. We are in a time in which many Europeans are beginning to resonate with the idea of ​​abandoning American technology and softwareand that’s where Google comes in. In hardware there are proposals such as Fairphone 6 and every time more alternatives appear of software so as not to have to depend on those American programs. Who had… retained? As I say, it is undeniable that Huawei’s position by sneaking a mobile phone for 1,300 euros with so many concessions is complex and optimistic, but it is still an interesting approach: they are gaining confidence thanks to rising like foam in the local market and they know that they have good foundations and, at least, a name that continues to sound good in the heads of many who have good memories of beasts like the P30 Pro. At the moment, we don’t know where this Mate 80 Pro will end up being released. Perhaps that announcement of the price of 1,299 euros is putting its foot in to test the temperature of the water, but although they know that they are competing at a disadvantage, a mobile phone of that price is a better thermometer of how the European market vibrates than a 2,100 euro foldable like the X7. In Xataka | Chinese mobile phones conquered the market by dividing into a thousand different brands. Now they are doing just the opposite.

Anthropic corners Gemini 3 Pro and GPT-5.2 more than ever

by

Think for a moment about the artificial intelligence models you have used in recent days. It may have been through ChatGPT, Gemini either Claudeor perhaps through tools like Codex, Claude Code or AI Cursor. In practice, the choice is usually simple: we end up using what best fits what we need at any given moment, almost without stopping to think about the technology behind it. However, that balance changes frequently. Each new model that appears promises improvements, new capabilities or different ways of working, and with it a fairly direct question returns: if it is worth trying, if it can really offer us something better or if what we already use is still enough. Claude Sonnet 4.6 just came to the foreand this is how it is positioned against the competition. Claude Sonnet’s starting point 4.6. Here we find what Anthropic describes as a transversal improvement in capabilities, which includes advances in coding, computer use, long-context reasoning, agent planning, and tasks typical of intellectual and creative work. Added to this set is a context window of up to one million tokens in beta, designed to process entire code bases, extensive contracts or large collections of information without fragmentation. Three levels, the same map. To understand where Sonnet 4.6 fits in, it’s worth looking at how Anthropic tends to organize its family of models into different levels with different objectives. Haiku prioritizes speed and efficiency, Opus is reserved for tasks that require the deepest reasoning, and Sonnet occupies the middle ground, designed as a balance between capacity and operating cost. Within this framework, the company maintains that the new Sonnet comes close in some real jobs to the performance previously associated with the Opus, an ambitious claim. When AI starts using the computer. One of the improvements that Anthropic highlights most strongly in Sonnet 4.6 is its progress in what it calls computer usethat is, the ability of the model to interact with software in a way similar to a person, without depending on APIs designed specifically for automation. This progress is supported by references such as OSWorld-Verified, a testing environment with real applications where the Sonnet family has been improving steadily over several months. The company also recognizes limits and risks that we have talked about before, such as attempts at manipulation through prompt injection. Searching for the ‘best’ model. At this point, the relevant question stops being how much Sonnet 4.6 has improved in absolute terms and begins to focus on how it is compared to the other large models that today compete for the same space of use. The comparison is not simple nor does it allow for a single winner, because each system excels in different areas and responds to different technical priorities. That is why it is advisable to read the benchmarks with a practical perspective, identifying in which specific tasks the real differences appear. Where each model stands out. The direct comparison with GPT-5.2 draws a distribution of strengths rather than a clear victory. According to the table published by Anthropic, Sonnet 4.6 stands out especially widely in the autonomous use of the computer measured in OSWorld-Verified, in addition to showing an advantage in office tasks (GDPval-AA Elo) and in some analysis or problem solving scenarios (Finance Agent v1.1, ARC-AGI-2). GPT-5.2, for its part, maintains better results in graduate-level reasoning (GPQA Diamond), visual comprehension (MMMU-Pro) and terminal programming (Terminal-Bench 2.0), with nuances such as results marked as Pro in some tests (BrowseComp, HLE) or self-reported grades in Terminal-Bench 2.0. The comparison with Gemini 3 Pro introduces a different nuance, because here the advantages are concentrated above all in the field of reasoning and general knowledge. The Google model obtains better results in graduate-level reasoning tests (GPQA Diamond) and in wide-ranging multilingual questionnaires (MMMLU), in addition to being ahead in visual reasoning without tools (MMMU-Pro). Sonnet 4.6, on the other hand, retains a certain advantage when external tools or scenarios closer to the applied work come into play. The absence of some comparable data in the table itself forces, in any case, to interpret this duel with caution. Where Sonnet 4.6 can be used. The new model is available in all Claude plans, including the free level, where it also becomes the default option within claude.ai and Claude Cowork. It can also be used through Claude Code, the API and the main cloud platforms, maintaining the same price as the Sonnet 4.5 version. After going through capabilities, limits and comparisons, the real decision returns to the user’s daily life. Sonnet 4.6 aims to be especially useful in productive tasks, direct interaction with software and long workflows, while GPT-5.2 and Gemini 3 Pro maintain advantages in academic reasoning, visual comprehension or general knowledge depending on the test considered. No one dominates all fronts, and that fragmentation defines the current moment of artificial intelligence. Images | Anthropic In Xataka | In 2025, AI seemed to have hit a wall of progress.

Sony WF-1000XM6 vs AirPods Pro 3. Which Bluetooth headphones to choose based on your tastes and needs

by

Buying good Bluetooth headphones can be a daunting task. There are many models from different brands, so it is difficult to choose if we are not clear about what each one offers. Now that the Sony WF-1000XM6What better than to put them face to face with the AirPods Pro 3 from Apple. Let’s see what their most important differences. The differences between the Sony WF-1000XM6 and the AirPods Pro 3 A clearly differential design Do you like stick or earbud headphones better? Not all people are attracted to the same design, so here we find the first big difference: the Sony WF-1000XM6 have a button design, while the AirPods Pro 3 have a stick format. In this way, they maintain the design of their respective previous generations.

Apple begins the reconquest of China thanks to the strong point of the iPhone 17 Pro: it is orange

by

Color psychology is a tremendously studied field. Something as simple as a color can trigger feelings subconsciouslybeing the use of green color in the scenes of the villains of classic Disney one of the best examples. It also depends on our languagebut I feel such a powerful weapon, it is evident that it is used consciously in the marketing and colors of the products. And there is nothing that exemplifies it better than China’s fever for the iPhone 17 Pro. For one in particular: the orange iPhone. In short. China is a market with immense potential for companies that want to exploit it. They are simple numbersand Apple has just witnessed what happens when they hit the key. How do they count in Financial TimesIn Apple’s recent financial presentation, Tim Cook welcomed the rebound in iPhone sales in China during the fourth quarter of 2025. The last and first sections of each year are the strong points of an Apple that usually launches its new devices between September and November of each year, but in the last quarter of 2025 they have experienced something unusual: income of 26,000 million dollars, marking a growth of 38% year-on-year in China and accounting for a fifth of the company’s total income. Taking into account the continuity in terms of specifications and fierce competition with Xiaomi, Alive and one Huawei that has returned on its ownit’s… curious. But it seems that the person responsible is none other than one color. cosmic orange. It is the model we analyzed, clearly the most striking of Apple’s colors for the latest batch of iPhone and the one that is causing a stir in China. Orange is a color that distills energy, happiness and vitality. It is a warm color, and in China it also has a meaning positive related to the vitality of the crops, but also with spirituality and with the association of “orange” and “success” due to the similarity in Mandarin. And it seems like a joke, but it’s not. As we said, the colors of a device are not chosen at random, and this one has also landed on the right foot in the Asian giant. Nabila Popal, research director of the analyst group IDCnotes in the FT that “it sounds simple, but iPhone sales respond to obvious external changes in the design, which include the introduction of a garish orange color.” Viral. But it is no longer that Chinese consumers are buying the orange iPhone because it symbolizes that vitality, but because it symbolizes status. The shade of Apple’s ‘Cosmic Orange’ is very, very similar to the classic Hermès Orange, a luxury brand with which Apple itself has collaborated on some occasions (for Apple Watch straps, for example). It is something that has made the orange iPhone Pro transcend: from being a premium range phone to a luxury accessory. And of course, it is only in the most expensive model, the Pro, which increases that even more. perception to have a luxury accessory. “Choosing orange means that everyone knows that you are using the latest iPhone. It is a statement of identity,” said an influencer in one of the -many- unboxings of the orange iPhone that are seen on Chinese networks. Beyond color. Aside from the fact that color has had an impact on the sale of iPhones in China during the last period, the interesting thing is that Apple has managed to turn the tables. It has presented its strongest quarter since the first of 2022, the year in which it stood out and which has been followed by three periods of dcadence compared to national competition. Huawei, in particular, was very strong after recovering from the US veto and starting to launch high-end mobile phones again, this time with home-made chips. Apple should not be too amused about calling the orange iPhone “the Hermès iPhone,” but seeing how viral it is, it’s not like this mix of identities should be a headache in Cupertino. Now the question is whether they will start launching other devices and models in orange to try their luck in China… or if they will withdraw it, leaving the color as an exclusive to the iPhone 17. It wouldn’t be the first time. Image | Xataka In Xataka | For Apple, the price of its iPhones was sacred. Until it began to fall into the void in China
