Google is preparing to launch its advanced Gemini Intelligence suite on Android devices this summer, but the rollout comes with demanding hardware prerequisites that exclude the majority of smartphones currently on the market. To access these new AI features, devices must possess at least 12GB of RAM, a flagship-tier processor, and compatibility with AI Core and Gemini Nano version 3 or higher. This high barrier to entry ensures peak performance for complex local processing but effectively limits the technology to the latest premium flagship models, leaving mid-range and older hardware behind.
