arena · x · 2026-09-22
Xiaomi's new MiMo-V2.6-Pro landed on WebDev Code Arena with an AutoEval debut of 1628 points, entering the overall top 10 (#10) and ranking #3 among MIT-licensed open-weight models.
- It ties Claude Fable 5 (High) and edges out Hy4-preview (1624), a +153 point jump over MiMo-V2.5-Pro (1475 → 1628).
- Among open weights it sits just 7 points behind Qwen3.8 Flash Next (#2) and 46 behind Kimi K3 Max (#1).
- Caveat: this is an early AutoEval score cast by a reward model trained on Arena's human preference data; scores will converge as live human votes arrive.
