MiMo 2.5 Pro Gets Major Price Cut, Matching DeepSeek V4 Pro

MiMo 2.5 Pro大幅降价，与DeepSeek V4 Pro同价

Xiaomi permanently cut MiMo-V2.5 API prices by up to 99%, matched DeepSeek V4 Pro pricing, increased same-price token allowances by 5–8x, reset existing user quotas in full, and set the new pricing to take effect on May 26.

Why it matters: HKR-H/K/R all pass: the 99% cut creates a price-war hook, the post gives 5-8x token economics, and API cost pressure resonates. It remains a pricing update, not a model or capability release, so it stays below the 78+ band.

Take

Xiaomi’s 99% MiMo-V2.5 API price cut is a survival move in the inference price war, not a capability flex. The hard facts are brutal: MiMo-V2.5 now matches DeepSeek V4 Pro pricing, same-price token allowances rise 5–8x, and existing user quotas get fully reset. That is Xiaomi buying back developer attention before usage habits harden elsewhere.

I don’t fully buy the “full-stack inference optimization” explanation yet. The snippet says a technical blog will come later, but gives no throughput, latency, GPU utilization, or per-token cost data. DeepSeek has already trained the China API market to treat cheap inference as table stakes. Xiaomi can match price, but MiMo still has to prove a reason to be called inside phones, cars, and audio workflows instead of just being another discounted endpoint.
