Qwen 3.5 Small models - fully open source - beats models 4x it’s size - 9B model performs on par with GPT OSS 120B while being 13x smaller - outperforms Gemini 3 flash and Claude sonnet 4.5 on select benchmarks - runs on any laptop - even works on a phone - completely free.
🚀 Introducing the Qwen 3.5 Small Model Series Qwen3.5-0.8B · Qwen3.5-2B · Qwen3.5-4B · Qwen3.5-9B ✨ More intelligence, less compute. These small models are built on the same Qwen3.5 foundation — native multimodal, improved architecture, scaled RL: • 0.8B / 2B → tiny, fast, great for edge device • 4B → a surprisingly strong multimodal base for lightweight agents • 9B → compact, but already closing the gap with much larger models And yes — we’re also releasing the Base models as well. We hope this better supports research, experimentation, and real-world industrial innovation.
