Exaone 4.0 32B vs Phi-4

Side-by-side benchmark comparison across agentic, coding, multimodal, knowledge, reasoning, and math workflows.

Exaone 4.0 32B is clearly ahead on the aggregate, 83 to 46. The gap is large enough that you do not need to squint at the spreadsheet to see the difference.

Exaone 4.0 32B's sharpest advantage is in knowledge, where it averages 81.8 against 53.6.

Exaone 4.0 32B is the reasoning model in the pair, while Phi-4 is not. That usually helps on harder chain-of-thought-heavy tests, but it can also mean more latency and more token spend in real use. Exaone 4.0 32B gives you the larger context window at 128K, compared with 16K for Phi-4.

Quick Verdict

Pick Exaone 4.0 32B if you want the stronger benchmark profile. Phi-4 only becomes the better choice if you would rather avoid the extra latency and token burn of a reasoning model.
