Side-by-side benchmark comparison across agentic, coding, multimodal, knowledge, reasoning, and math workflows.
Qwen3.5 397B is clearly ahead on the aggregate, 62 to 49. The gap is large enough that you do not need to squint at the spreadsheet to see the difference.
K-Exaone is the reasoning model in the pair, while Qwen3.5 397B 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. K-Exaone gives you the larger context window at 256K, compared with 128K for Qwen3.5 397B.
Pick Qwen3.5 397B if you want the stronger benchmark profile. K-Exaone only becomes the better choice if coding is the priority or you need the larger 256K context window.
