Why the edge:
- Reach, MiniCPM-V 4.7 1B +40: MiniCPM-V 4.7 1B 95 (Memory 30, OpenBMB's own IQ4_XS GGUF is 0.64 GB, 1.54 GB with the 0.90 GB vision projector, and 1.54 GB × 1.2 = 1.9 GB, which fits 16 GB with room to spare.); MiniMax-M3.1-Flash 55 (Memory earns nothing.)
- Risk, MiniCPM-V 4.7 1B +20: MiniCPM-V 4.7 1B 55 (File safety 25, safetensors in the main repository and the AWQ, GPTQ and int4 builds, GGUF in the GGUF build, with no .bin, .pt, .pth or .py files in the main r…); MiniMax-M3.1-Flash 35 (File safety earns 15, safetensors only, less 10 because the SGLang route the card links passes trust_remote_code for the repository's configuration and processo…)
- Documentation and upkeep, MiniCPM-V 4.7 1B +7: MiniCPM-V 4.7 1B 48 (Model card 8, Intended use (image, multi-image and video understanding on device), architecture (early visual-token compression inside the vision encoder) and p…); MiniMax-M3.1-Flash 41 (The model card earns 11, missing limitations, languages and a knowledge cut-off.)
