MiniMax M2.7 vs Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B
Updated August 19, 2026. Public scores include evidence status and uncertainty. They are not guarantees for a specific workload.
Decision reading
MiniMax M2.7 has the higher public score estimate, 63.08 versus 49.27, but the 90% score intervals overlap. Treat that as a lead, not a settled winner.
5 results are shared. Category rows based on different benchmark sets are marked directional and do not name a winner.
Which one for your work
Recommendations appear only when a shared evidence basis or an explicit operating constraint supports the call. Secondary and unsupported use cases stay disclosed below the initial list.

Not enough matched evidence
The category averages use different weighted benchmark sets, so they are directional rather than like-for-like.

Not enough matched evidence
The page does not recommend a cost winner because at least one model cannot fit the stated workload in one request. MiniMax M2.7 does not fit this workload in one request. MiniMax M2.7 has no published cached-input rate, so cached tokens use its listed input rate. Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B has no comparable published API token rate.
Confidence: rate-fallback

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

1 category uses different evidence sets. Those rows remain visible for coverage context but do not name a winner.
Category results, on a stated basis
Each row states whether both averages use the same weighted benchmark set. Directional and not-comparable rows remain visible, but they never receive a winner in this template.

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.

What each workload costs
Three fixed token mixes turn per-token rates into comparable decisions. Each scenario states context fit and whether cached input had to fall back to the published list-input rate.

Frequently asked questions
Which is better, MiniMax M2.7 or Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B?
MiniMax M2.7 has the higher public score estimate, 63.08 versus 49.27, but the 90% score intervals overlap. The higher estimate is not a decisive winner because the uncertainty ranges overlap.
Which is better for coding, MiniMax M2.7 or Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B?
The current coding averages use different weighted benchmark sets, so BenchLM does not name a winner from them. Read the shared benchmark rows directly and test the models on the same task set.
Which is better for agentic tasks, MiniMax M2.7 or Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B?
The published evidence does not provide a shared weighted agentic tasks basis for both models, so BenchLM does not name a agentic tasks winner.
Which costs less, MiniMax M2.7 or Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B?
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, MiniMax M2.7 or Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B?
Ornith-1.5-35B-A3B has the larger documented context window: 262K, compared with 200K.
