MiMo-V2-Flash vs Qwen2.5 72B Instruct

Xiaomi

MiMo-V2-Flash, released by Xiaomi on December 16, 2025, is a Mixture-of-Experts large language model with 309 billion total parameters and 15 billion active parameters per inference, designed for high-speed reasoning and agentic workflows. It features a 256K token context window, processes up to 150 tokens per second, and was trained on 27 trillion tokens. MiMo-V2-Flash targets open-source deployments requiring fast, capable coding and reasoning with an efficient inference footprint, under an MIT license.

Alibaba / Qwen

Qwen2.5-72B-Instruct is the flagship of Alibaba's Qwen2.5 series, a 72-billion-parameter open-weight model released in September 2024 after training on 18 trillion tokens spanning code, mathematics, and multilingual text. It offers strong generalist performance across coding, instruction-following, and structured reasoning while remaining fully open-weight under Apache 2.0 — a combination that made it a widely referenced model in open-source evaluations and community benchmarking. The 128K context window and built-in structured output support made it a common choice for document analysis and multi-step agentic pipeline development.
