Qwen3.5 397B vs Qwen3.7 Plus

Updated September 27, 2026. We do not rank this pair: at least one has no public score. Public scores include evidence status and uncertainty.

Decision reading

At least one model is not scored in the current public ranking lane, so the page does not name an overall quality winner. 22 results are shared. Category rows resting on Estimated evidence or different benchmark sets are marked directional and do not name a winner.

The page does not recommend a cost winner because at least one model cannot fit the stated workload in one request. Qwen3.5 397B does not fit this workload in one request. Qwen3.5 397B has no published cached-input rate, so cached tokens use its listed input rate. Qwen3.7 Plus has no comparable published API token rate.

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.

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.

Chat turn

1K fresh input + 500 output tokens

Qwen3.5 397B: $0.0024; Fits in one request
Qwen3.7 Plus: API rate not published; Fits in one request

Qwen3.7 Plus has no comparable published API token rate.

Repository review

50K fresh input + 3K output tokens

Qwen3.5 397B: $0.0408; Fits in one request
Qwen3.7 Plus: API rate not published; Fits in one request

Qwen3.7 Plus has no comparable published API token rate.

Cache-heavy agent loop

200K cached + 20K fresh input + 10K output tokens

Qwen3.5 397B: $0.168; Does not fit in one request; Cached input priced at the published list-input rate
Qwen3.7 Plus: API rate not published; Fits in one request; Cached-input rate unavailable

Qwen3.5 397B does not fit this workload in one request. Qwen3.5 397B has no published cached-input rate, so cached tokens use its listed input rate. Qwen3.7 Plus has no comparable published API token rate.

Cached input falls back to the list input rate only where a cached rate is unpublished

If you already use one of these models

Deployment change: Both entries list Alibaba as the provider. Confirm endpoint, model ID, limits, and feature support before switching.
Quality signal: At least one model is not scored in the current public ranking lane, so the page does not name an overall quality winner.
Workload cost: A complete comparable API-rate estimate is not available for both models.
Context tradeoff: Qwen3.7 Plus has the larger documented window (1M).

Run the same representative tasks against both endpoints before changing production traffic.

Questions

Which is better, Qwen3.5 397B or Qwen3.7 Plus?

At least one model is not scored in the current public ranking lane, so the page does not name an overall quality winner. The page therefore keeps the decision tied to the specific documented workload.

Which is better for coding, Qwen3.5 397B or Qwen3.7 Plus?

Qwen3.5 397B is not ranked on the public lane for coding, so no winner is named for coding.

Which is better for agentic tasks, Qwen3.5 397B or Qwen3.7 Plus?

Qwen3.5 397B is not ranked on the public lane for agentic tasks, so no winner is named for agentic tasks.

Which costs less, Qwen3.5 397B or Qwen3.7 Plus?

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, Qwen3.5 397B or Qwen3.7 Plus?

Qwen3.7 Plus has the larger documented context window: 1M, compared with 128K.
