How these speeds are measured

  • Every number comes from real chats in Loci, timed on the device that wrote the answer, with Loci's default settings.
  • Tokens per second is how fast an answer is written once it starts. On phones, four characters of text count as one token for every model; on a Mac, Loci counts the model's own tokens. Reading pace is about 5.
  • First word is how long an answer takes to start after you send a message. Longer conversations take longer.
  • Each device counts once. The large number is the median; the typical range covers the middle half of devices.
  • Results use the last 30 days when enough devices have been measured. Otherwise, labeled 90-day samples include older measurements under the same sample and app-version requirements.
  • Each phone speed comes from at least 10 phones of that model. Different phone models and Android chip variants are measured separately. Open a result to see its sample size.
  • On phones, answers written in Low Power Mode or Battery Saver, in the background, or with web search or other tools are left out.
