Side-by-side benchmark comparison across knowledge, coding, math, and reasoning.
Gemini 3 Pro is clearly ahead on the aggregate, 84 to 35. The gap is large enough that you do not need to squint at the spreadsheet to see the difference.
Gemini 3 Pro's sharpest advantage is in mathematics, where it averages 96.4 against 23.1. The single biggest benchmark swing on the page is AIME 2024, 99 to 23.1. GPT-4.1 mini does hit back in instruction following, so the answer changes if that is the part of the workload you care about most.
Gemini 3 Pro gives you the larger context window at 2M, compared with 1M for GPT-4.1 mini.
Pick Gemini 3 Pro if you want the stronger benchmark profile. GPT-4.1 mini only becomes the better choice if instruction following is the priority.
