Pick MiMo-V2.5-Pro if you want the stronger benchmark profile. GPT-4.1 only becomes the better choice if knowledge is the priority or you would rather avoid the extra latency and token burn of a reasoning model.

Confidence note. This is a partial-evidence comparison with 13 shared benchmark results across 6 evidence categories; 2 of 8 categories currently have scoreable aggregates for both models. Treat the verdict as directional until coverage is more balanced.

Why this result

MiMo-V2.5-Pro is clearly ahead on the BenchAlign aggregate, 70.19 to 51.11. The gap is large enough that you do not need to squint at the spreadsheet to see the difference.

MiMo-V2.5-Pro's sharpest advantage is in coding, where it averages 57.2 against 54.6. GPT-4.1 does hit back in knowledge, so the answer changes if that is the part of the workload you care about most.

MiMo-V2.5-Pro is the reasoning model in the pair, while GPT-4.1 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.

Category breakdown

Exact category averages are shown below. Not measured means BenchLM does not have enough sourced public coverage for that model and category.
