It seems that Minimax has a new contender for leadership.
It’s unclear whether this coincided with the launch of the Minimax M1 model, mentioned in the previous post, but suddenly on video forums in the Image2Video section, Minimax Hailuo 02 (0616) appeared on the second row. And so far, almost no users have had the chance to meet it in person. Yet, it is already successfully competing with Veo3, doing so with a noticeable lead and at a significant distance.
We look forward to more updates from the Minimax team!
