What Android smartphone feature disappeared and should make a comeback?

For me, there are a few obvious candidates:

• Headphone jack

• MicroSD card slot

• Notification LED

• IR blaster

• Charger in the box

• Removable battery

You can only bring back one.

Has anyone successfully run a local LLM on Android without cloud? What's your experience with on-device AI inference performance?

I've been experimenting with running a small LLM fully on-device on Android (Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, 8GB RAM) using llama.cpp via NDK/JNI. No internet connection needed, everything processes locally.



So far I've tested Llama 3.2 3B and Phi-3.5 Mini with Q4_K_M quantization. Getting roughly 15–20 tokens/sec which is usable for a chat assistant.



Curious if others have done something similar:

\- What devices have you tested on and what performance did you get?

\- Have you tried GPU acceleration on Android (Vulkan/OpenCL)?

\- How do you handle the \~2GB model file distribution? Bundled in APK vs downloaded on first run?



Seems like on-device AI is becoming increasingly feasible on flagship Android hardware. Interested to hear others' experiences!
