If you haven't tried it yet, and you have a modern enough phone, I strongly recommend trying out Mistral 7B on your mobile device.

I've been running it on an iPhone 15 using this app: https://llm.mlc.ai/#ios - App Store link: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/mlc-chat/id6448482937

The same team have an Android version too which I've not yet tried myself: https://llm.mlc.ai/#android

On my iPhone it works, and provides very decent performance. The only catch is that it needs pretty much the entire phone's memory to work - so if you switch out of it to another app and back again it resets the state and has to load the model from scratch.
