Lineage

The sequence follows explicit supersedes links. Each score is estimated for that model; a relative can inform a sparse estimate but never sets a floor, so a newer release can score below an earlier one. Scores and prices remain blank when the corresponding public row or first-party rate is unavailable.

How to read this profile

The visual layer above carries the decisions. These notes preserve the model, ranking, coverage, and family context behind the numbers.

Qwen3.8-27B ranks #72 of 215 on the public leaderboard with a score of 54.06/100. Its source-verified position is #42 of 81.

Qwen3.8-27B is a open weight model with a 262K context window. It uses an explicit reasoning mode, which can improve complex problem solving while adding latency and token use.

Qwen publishes the 27B dense checkpoint and a separate FP8 artifact on Hugging Face under Apache-2.0. LM Studio lists a community GGUF package for local use. Qwen Cloud says a hosted qwen3.8-27b service with a default 1M context window and built-in tools is coming soon, so no current first-party API identifier or token rate is stored.

Official exact-value snapshot from Qwen's Qwen3.8-27B model card. We keep Terminal-Bench 2.1 and LiveCodeBench v6 separate from the older weighted lanes, preserve no-Code-Interpreter and Code-Interpreter visual results on separate keys, and leave QwenSWEBench, RecreationBench, ClawEval-MM, and SWE-MM outside the schema instead of forcing them into non-equivalent fields. Qwen reports a dense 27B native vision-language model with a 262,144-token native context window extensible to 1,000,000 tokens.

Its explicit predecessor is Qwen3.6-27B. 52 of 906 tracked benchmark slots currently have displayable evidence. Missing categories stay blank.

Its strongest eligible category is Agentic at #24, while its lowest eligible position is Knowledge at #79. particularly useful for coding agents, browser research, and computer-use workflows.

Last updated November 12, 2026. Runtime fields remain blank until a sourced snapshot exists.

Deployment options

Self-host and provider-specific paths stay separate from benchmark evidence so operating constraints are visible before a score becomes the whole decision.

Questions

How does Qwen3.8-27B perform overall in AI benchmarks?

Qwen3.8-27B ranks #72 out of 215 models on the public BenchAlign leaderboard, with a score of 54.06/100. Its evidence status is Supported, and this profile shows 52 source-displayable benchmark rows. The label describes evidence depth, not a provider quality claim; inspect category rows before choosing a workload.

Is Qwen3.8-27B good for knowledge and understanding?

Qwen3.8-27B ranks #79 out of 180 eligible models for knowledge and understanding, with a public category score of 50.1/100. Higher-ranked alternatives are available for workloads where this category decides the choice. Check the underlying rows before treating the aggregate as a workload guarantee.

Is Qwen3.8-27B good for coding and programming?

Qwen3.8-27B ranks #58 out of 162 eligible models for coding and programming, with a public category score of 45.9/100. Higher-ranked alternatives are available for workloads where this category decides the choice. Check the underlying rows before treating the aggregate as a workload guarantee.

Is Qwen3.8-27B good for agentic tool use and computer tasks?

Qwen3.8-27B ranks #24 out of 135 eligible models for agentic tool use and computer tasks, with a public category score of 61.8/100. Higher-ranked alternatives are available for workloads where this category decides the choice. Check the underlying rows before treating the aggregate as a workload guarantee.

Is Qwen3.8-27B good for multimodal and grounded tasks?

Qwen3.8-27B ranks #33 out of 67 eligible models for multimodal and grounded tasks, with a public category score of 60.5/100. Higher-ranked alternatives are available for workloads where this category decides the choice. Check the underlying rows before treating the aggregate as a workload guarantee.

Is Qwen3.8-27B good for instruction following?

Qwen3.8-27B ranks #44 out of 157 eligible models for instruction following, with a public category score of 86.9/100. Higher-ranked alternatives are available for workloads where this category decides the choice. Check the underlying rows before treating the aggregate as a workload guarantee.

Is Qwen3.8-27B open source?

Qwen3.8-27B is an open-weight model from Alibaba. Its weights can be downloaded for local or hosted deployment, subject to the published license. Open weight does not automatically mean open source: training data and training code may remain private, and commercial restrictions can still apply.

Does Qwen3.8-27B have full benchmark coverage on BenchLM?

No. Qwen3.8-27B currently has 78 source-displayable rows. The profile exposes published, non-generated evidence and leaves missing categories blank until an exact evaluation is available. Coverage describes how much was measured; it is not a penalty added to an individual benchmark result.

What is the context window size of Qwen3.8-27B?

Qwen3.8-27B has a documented context window of 262K. That figure is the maximum combined prompt and retained-conversation space reported for this exact model; it is not the maximum output length. The profile keeps output limits separate because providers often publish those limits independently.
