Deep dive
On shared benchmark coverage, MMLU PRO has Xiaomi MiMo-V2.5 at 84.9 and Mistral Large 3 675B Instruct at 85.5, with Mistral Large 3 675B Instruct ahead by 0.6 points; Google-Proof Q&A has Xiaomi MiMo-V2.5 at 83.7 and Mistral Large 3 675B Instruct at 43.9, with Xiaomi MiMo-V2.5 ahead by 39.8 points. The largest visible gap is 39.8 points on Google-Proof Q&A, which matters most when that benchmark mirrors your workload. Treat isolated benchmark wins as directional, because provider routing, prompt style, and tool access can move real application results.
The capability footprint differs most on reasoning mode: Xiaomi MiMo-V2.5, function calling: Xiaomi MiMo-V2.5, and tool use: Xiaomi MiMo-V2.5. Both models share vision, multimodal input, and structured outputs, so the practical split is not just feature count. Use those differences to decide whether the page is about raw model quality, agentic coding support, multimodal ingestion, or predictable structured API behavior.
For cost, Xiaomi MiMo-V2.5 lists $0.14/1M input and $0.28/1M output tokens on the cheapest tracked provider, while Mistral Large 3 675B Instruct lists $0.50/1M input and $1.50/1M output tokens on the cheapest tracked provider. A 70/30 input-output blend puts Xiaomi MiMo-V2.5 lower by about $0.62 per million blended tokens. Availability is 2 providers versus 6, so concentration risk also matters.
Choose Xiaomi MiMo-V2.5 when reasoning depth, larger context windows, and lower input-token cost are central to the workload. Choose Mistral Large 3 675B Instruct when vision-heavy evaluation and broader provider choice are more important. For production, rerun your own prompts through the exact provider, region, and tool stack you plan to ship.
