GLM-5.3 is the stronger all-rounder.MiMo V2.6 Flash RL is cheaper and better at coding.

Scores updated · 22 tests both models report · How we compare

Where each one wins

Tests won in each of the five areas where both have results. Each piece is one test, so a longer bar means more evidence; grey means the two scored within a point of each other.

Long documents rests on a single test.

What it costs

Prices per million tokens, roughly 750,000 words. The bars show the cost of a million tokens read plus a million written.

Questions people ask

Which is better, GLM-5.3 or MiMo V2.6 Flash RL?

GLM-5.3 wins four of the five areas where both have results: agents, reasoning, facts and long documents. MiMo V2.6 Flash RL wins coding, and costs 93% less.

Which is better for coding?

MiMo V2.6 Flash RL. It wins 2 of the 3 coding tests both models report; GLM-5.3 wins 1.

Which is cheaper?

GLM-5.3 costs $1.40 per million input tokens and $4.40 per million output tokens; MiMo V2.6 Flash RL costs $0.14 and $0.28. That makes MiMo V2.6 Flash RL about 93% cheaper for the same work.

How do you compare the two?

We use the 22 benchmark tests both models have published scores on. The verdict counts the 10 tests in the eight capability areas, and a gap under one point (ten on rating-style scales) counts as a tie. The other 12 are listed but not counted, because several are summary scores or repeat a test. Each score is the one shown on the model's own page.
