It supports tool calling, web search, structured output, streaming and context caching.\n\nMiMo‑V2.6‑Pro is roughly 21 times cheaper per benchmark task than Grok 4.7 High, costing about $0.13 versus $2.73, but it is slower to generate tokens. Xiaomi also offers a UltraSpeed variant for latency‑sensitive workloads.\n\nThe release positions Xiaomi as a serious competitor to top proprietary models, offering a free‑weight alternative that could shift the market toward open‑source AI and reduce barriers for developers needing large‑scale, cost‑effective language models.","keyPoints":["Xiaomi’s MiMo‑V2.6‑Pro scores 46 on Artificial Analysis, tying Grok 4.7 High and surpassing Kimi K3 Max, GLM‑5.3 Max, GLM 5.3 Flash.","MiMo‑V2.6‑Pro averages $0.13 per task versus $2.73 for Grok 4.7 High, making it roughly 21 times cheaper."],"whyItMatters":"MiMo‑V2.6‑Pro’s high score and low cost position Xiaomi as a serious competitor to top proprietary models, offering a free‑weight alternative that could shift the market toward open‑source AI and reduce barriers for developers needing large‑scale, cost‑effective language models.","category":{"slug":"models","name":"Generative AI & Models","url":"https://digestai.news/category/models"},"entities":{"companies":["Xiaomi"],"models":["MiMo‑V2.6‑Pro","Grok 4.7 High","Kimi K3 Max","GLM‑5.3 Max","GLM 5.3 Flash"],"people":[]},"firstPublishedAt":"2026-10-04T23:26:00Z","updatedAt":"2026-10-04T23:26:00Z","sourceCount":1,"hasPrimarySource":false,"sources":[{"outlet":"propakistani.pk","title":"Xiaomi Is Suddenly Competing With the World’s Top AI Labs","url":"https://propakistani.pk/2026/10/05/xiaomi-is-suddenly-competing-with-the-worlds-top-ai-labs","publishedAt":"2026-10-04T23:26:00Z","type":"press","primary":false,"lead":true}],"sourceNotes":null,"discussions":[],"thread":null,"cite":{"text":"Digest AI, \"Xiaomi’s MiMo‑V2.6‑Pro tops open‑weight model rankings\", 4 October 2026, https://digestai.news/story/xiaomis-mimov2-6pro-tops-openweight-model-rankings","publisher":"Digest AI","title":"Xiaomi’s MiMo‑V2.6‑Pro tops open‑weight model rankings","datePublished":"2026-10-04T23:26:00Z","url":"https://digestai.news/story/xiaomis-mimov2-6pro-tops-openweight-model-rankings"},"generatedBy":"Written by Digest AI's editorial model from the linked sources; the sources are the record.","license":"Headlines, digests and key points are written by Digest AI and may be quoted with a link to the story page.
