Kimi K2.6 vs MiniMax M2.7: Brute Force vs Efficiency (May 2026)
32B active params vs 10B. $4.00/1M output vs $1.20. 58.6% SWE-bench Pro vs 56.22%. Kimi K2.6 wins on raw performance — but MiniMax M2.7 is the efficiency miracle: 94% of Kimi's coding score at 70% less cost, with only a fraction of the parameters. This is the battle between brute force and architectural genius.
