Question 1

How much does Llama 3.2 1B cost per token?

Accepted Answer

As of May 2026, Llama 3.2 1B costs $0.027 per 1 million input tokens and $0.201 per 1 million output tokens — an output-to-input ratio of 7.4×. A 1,000-token input request costs $0.0000; a 10,000-token input request costs $0.0003. These prices are sourced from live OpenRouter data and verified against the provider's published pricing page.

Question 2

How many tokens does Llama 3.2 1B support per request?

Accepted Answer

Llama 3.2 1B's context window and per-request output cap are listed in the pricing table above. The context window is the maximum input + output combined; the output limit is how many tokens the model can generate in a single response. Most 2026 flagship models support at least 128,000-token context windows, with Gemini 2.5 Pro reaching 1 million tokens.

Question 3

Is Llama 3.2 1B good for coding?

Accepted Answer

Llama 3.2 1B's coding performance depends on its tier (see the badge above). Reasoning-tier models (OpenAI o3, DeepSeek R1) lead on hard algorithmic problems; balanced models like Claude Sonnet 4 and GPT-4o lead on long-context codebase work. For specifics, check the strengths section above and the /compare/best-models-for-coding ranking.

Question 4

How does Llama 3.2 1B compare to other AI models?

Accepted Answer

See the related models grid below this section for direct comparisons. Llama 3.2 1B is best understood relative to: (1) cheaper models in the same family (when speed matters more than capability), (2) competitor flagships at the same tier (for head-to-head decisions), and (3) reasoning models (when accuracy on hard problems outweighs cost).
