Decision reading
MiMo-V2-Flash has the higher public score estimate, 39.92 versus 19.1, but the 90% score intervals overlap. Treat that as a lead, not a settled winner. 3 results are shared. Category rows resting on Estimated evidence or different benchmark sets are marked directional and do not name a winner.

What is actually comparable
Shared results can support a head-to-head reading. Results present for only one model describe coverage, not superiority.

Shape of the matched evidence
Only shared public evidence is shown. Sparse evidence stays a ruled list rather than being closed into a radar shape.
Too few matched category axes support a radar. The ruled list below shows only shared benchmark results; positions use each benchmark’s normalized display scale when available.

Category results, on a stated basis
Each row shows the public-lane category score for both models: the BenchAlign v5.7 lane for agentic, coding, and knowledge, and the weighted public rows elsewhere, with the same rank each model page reports. A row is like-for-like only when both scores rest on Supported evidence or the same weighted set. Directional and not-comparable rows remain visible, but they never receive a winner.

Ranks count the models scored in each category’s lane, so the agentic, coding, and knowledge denominators (BenchAlign v5.7) differ from the provisional-lane categories. Unranked scores sit on the provisional lane’s scale but never name a winner. Like-for-like rows within 0.5 points read as a practical tie.

Questions
Which is better, MiMo-V2-Flash or Nemotron 3.5 Lightning 30B A3B NVFP4?
MiMo-V2-Flash has the higher public score estimate, 39.92 versus 19.1, but the 90% score intervals overlap. The higher estimate is not a decisive winner because the uncertainty ranges overlap.
Which is better for coding, MiMo-V2-Flash or Nemotron 3.5 Lightning 30B A3B NVFP4?
MiMo-V2-Flash scores higher for coding on the public lane, 32.5 to 11.4. MiMo-V2-Flash and Nemotron 3.5 Lightning 30B A3B NVFP4 are scored on Estimated evidence for coding, so the reading is directional rather than like-for-like. BenchLM does not name a winner for coding from a directional reading; read the shared benchmark rows directly and test the models on the same task set.
Which is better for agentic tasks, MiMo-V2-Flash or Nemotron 3.5 Lightning 30B A3B NVFP4?
MiMo-V2-Flash is not ranked on the public lane for agentic tasks, so no winner is named for agentic tasks.
Which costs less, MiMo-V2-Flash or Nemotron 3.5 Lightning 30B A3B NVFP4?
Both models do not have comparable published API token rates, so this page does not name a universal price winner.
Which has the larger context window, MiMo-V2-Flash or Nemotron 3.5 Lightning 30B A3B NVFP4?
Nemotron 3.5 Lightning 30B A3B NVFP4 has the larger documented context window: 1M, compared with 256K.
