Pick MiMo-V2.5-Pro if you want the stronger benchmark profile. Ling 2.6 Flash only becomes the better choice if knowledge is the priority or you want the cheaper token bill.
MiMo-V2.5-Pro is clearly ahead on the provisional aggregate, 82 to 44. 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 27. Ling 2.6 Flash 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 also the more expensive model on tokens at $1.00 input / $3.00 output per 1M tokens, versus $0.10 input / $0.30 output per 1M tokens for Ling 2.6 Flash. That is roughly 10.0x on output cost alone. MiMo-V2.5-Pro is the reasoning model in the pair, while Ling 2.6 Flash 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. MiMo-V2.5-Pro gives you the larger context window at 1M, compared with 262K for Ling 2.6 Flash.
MiMo-V2.5-Pro is ahead on BenchLM's provisional leaderboard, 82 to 44.
Ling 2.6 Flash has the edge for knowledge tasks in this comparison, averaging 59 versus 48. MiMo-V2.5-Pro stays close enough that the answer can still flip depending on your workload.
