Space Bunny (MiniMax M3.1 Flash) lands #26 on DesignArena frontend leaderboard with 1290
On DesignArena's overall frontend leaderboard MiniMax M3.1 Flash scores 1290 at #26, behind Kimi K3 (1360), DeepSeek V4.1 Flash (1319) and MiMo-V2.6-Pro (1315), a contrast with its strong official coding and agentic benchmarks.

This is a little disappointing for MiniMax M3.1 Flash. The model behind Space Bunny landed at #26 on DesignArena's Overall Frontend leaderboard. MiniMax M3.1 Flash → 1290 Compared with some of the other big Chinese models: 🌙 Kimi K3 → 1360 🔴 DeepSeek V4.1 Flash → 1319 🟠 MiMo-V2.6-Pro → 1315 That's especially interesting because MiniMax's launch benchmarks look quite strong on coding and agentic work. But #26 is not the debut I expected after the Space Bunny hype. 👀
