mimo-v2.6-pro
mimo-v2.6-pro is Xiaomi's model at $0.43 input and $0.87 output per million tokens, with a 1050K context window. On a typical 3:1 input-to-output mix that blends to roughly $0.54 per million tokens, placing it in the mid-range band of the 85 models tracked here — cheaper than 63% of them.
By price, mimo-v2.6-pro ranks 35th cheapest of 85 on input and 25th on output.. Its blended rate sits 83% below the catalog average.
In real billing terms: a support chatbot handling 50,000 turns a month (2,000 input / 500 output tokens each) costs about $65 per month on mimo-v2.6-pro, while a RAG workload of 20,000 queries (8,000 input / 800 output tokens each) runs about $84. Because output is priced 2.0× input here, long-generation tasks scale cost fastest — cap output length before you optimise anything else.
A 1050K context window holds roughly 1,400 pages of A4 text (at ~750 tokens per page), ranking 3rd of 85 here. That is enough to drop in an entire technical manual or several source files at once, which suits long-document summarization and codebase-wide analysis.
We track 2 Xiaomi models, and mimo-v2.6-pro's blended rate sits 51% above that provider's average. If your task tolerates a little less headroom, Phi-4-mini (Microsoft) blends about 95% cheaper at a quality score of 68, and is worth benchmarking first. Going the other way, qwen3.7-flash scores 82 on quality for about 90% less.
The closest model in Xiaomi's line-up is mimo-v2.6-flash ($0.14 input / $0.28 output, quality —). Against it, mimo-v2.6-pro has a 1K larger context window, costs 68% more blended. When two models sit this close on price, the deciding factor is usually latency and throughput — run both against your real prompts before picking.

Modalities
Where it fits — and where it doesn't
Good fit
- Coding: writing, refactoring and debugging across multi-file project context.
- Reasoning: multi-step decomposition, planning and tasks that need rigorous inference.
- Long documents: a 1050K window ingests a full contract, paper or large codebase in one pass.
- Multimodal input: handles images, screenshots and scanned documents directly.
Poor fit
- No obvious disqualifiers — still benchmark on your own data before committing.
