Tencent Open-Sources Hunyuan HY3: 295B MoE with Switchable Reasoning

AdinaYakup · x · 2026-07-06

Tencent has released and open-sourced the Hunyuan HY3 model, featuring a 295B parameter / 21B activation Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architecture. It supports a 256K ultra-long context, offers an FP8 quantized version, and is licensed under Apache 2.0.

The model supports switchable reasoning modes (no thinking / low intensity / high intensity), reduces hallucination rates by 50% compared to its predecessor, and demonstrates stable performance across mainstream agentic frameworks.

Targeting developer and enterprise deployment scenarios with a lenient open-source license, it serves as a major addition to the domestic open-source LLM landscape.
