Why I liked it
I tossed a screenshot of a messy flowchart into MiniMax Chat and asked, “What step comes next?” It gave me a clear sentence and a simple diagram description in seconds. Then I switched to voice and asked for a quick summary of a news story—no typing needed. The chat window never froze, and it never lost context, even after a 20-minute break.
