Short review of Qwen 3.8 27B

Mon, 17 Aug 2026 17:27:09 +0200

Qwen 3.8 is out since Friday, 17 of August. I am running it on my own server since Saturday. I am running Q4 quants from unsloth .

So far it feels like a step up from Qwen 3.6 27B, which sometimes had problems figuring stuff in my project that I am developing almost entirely using models - just as a test of how far I can push LLMs in agentic coding - mostly local models, I must add. Qwen 3.8 seems like having no problem at all.
