Side-by-side benchmark comparison across knowledge, coding, math, and reasoning.
GLM-4.7 is clearly ahead on the aggregate, 74 to 35. The gap is large enough that you do not need to squint at the spreadsheet to see the difference.
GLM-4.7's sharpest advantage is in mathematics, where it averages 85 against 23.1. The single biggest benchmark swing on the page is AIME 2024, 88 to 23.1. GPT-4.1 mini does hit back in knowledge, so the answer changes if that is the part of the workload you care about most.
GLM-4.7 is the reasoning model in the pair, while GPT-4.1 mini 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. GPT-4.1 mini gives you the larger context window at 1M, compared with 200K for GLM-4.7.
Pick GLM-4.7 if you want the stronger benchmark profile. GPT-4.1 mini only becomes the better choice if knowledge is the priority or you need the larger 1M context window.
