What’s differentMiniMax-M3 is a native multimodal model with 1M context. It has ~428B parameters and ~23B activated parameters.Reuses the GLM-5.2 base with new post-training; exposes low, high and max reasoning effort, defaulting to max.Long decode can use the unified 1M-token budget for output; reads video, audio and PDFs, with implicit-only caching.
