PawelHuryn · x · 2026-09-22
After Xiaomi released MiMo-V2.6-Pro, Pawel Huryn blind-tested it on real work: 2 repos, 105 real bugs, with blind judges scoring (median, n≥3):
- Muse Spark 1.3 (max): 32.2 for $18.11
- GPT-5.6 Luna (max): 31.5 for $2.82
- Grok 4.7 (xhigh): 28.8 for $22.89
- MiMo-V2.6-Pro (default): 22.7 for just $0.86
- DeepSeek V4.1 Flash (max): 21.7 for $0.78
- Gemini 3.8 Flash (high): 18 for $11.03
Verdict: not the top scorer, but its price makes for a strong Pareto frontier — a viable default if subsidized subscriptions disappeared.
