Pick Claude Opus 4.6 if you want the stronger benchmark profile. MiMo-V2.5-Pro only becomes the better choice if you want the cheaper token bill or you want the stronger reasoning-first profile.
Claude Opus 4.6 is clearly ahead on the provisional aggregate, 91 to 82. The gap is large enough that you do not need to squint at the spreadsheet to see the difference.
Claude Opus 4.6's sharpest advantage is in knowledge, where it averages 76.2 against 48. The single biggest benchmark swing on the page is HLE, 53% to 48%.
Claude Opus 4.6 is also the more expensive model on tokens at $5.00 input / $25.00 output per 1M tokens, versus $1.00 input / $3.00 output per 1M tokens for MiMo-V2.5-Pro. That is roughly 8.3x on output cost alone. MiMo-V2.5-Pro is the reasoning model in the pair, while Claude Opus 4.6 is not. That usually helps on harder chain-of-thought-heavy tests, but it can also mean more latency and more token spend in real use.
Claude Opus 4.6 is ahead on BenchLM's provisional leaderboard, 91 to 82. The biggest single separator in this matchup is HLE, where the scores are 53% and 48%.
