The post does not include benchmarks, merge status, or setup instructions, so it should be treated as a development signal rather than a finished release.
Google released new Gemma 4 checkpoints optimized with Quantization-Aware Training to preserve quality after compression. The release includes Q4_0 checkpoints and a mobile-focused quantization format that can reduce Gemma 4 E2B memory use to about 1GB, or below 1GB for a text-only configuration. The models are available through Hugging Face and supported across llama.cpp, Ollama, LM Studio, LiteRT-LM, Transformers.js, SGLang, vLLM, MLX, and Unsloth.
