Qwen3.5 Plus

Qwen · text, image, video → text

The Qwen 3.5 native vision-language Plus model is built on a hybrid architecture that integrates linear attention mechanisms with sparse mixture-of-experts models, achieving higher inference efficiency. In multiple task evaluations, the 3.5 series has demonstrated outstanding performance comparable to current leading frontier models, with leapfrog improvements over the 3 series in both pure-text and multimodal capabilities. This model version is functionally equivalent to the snapshot model qwen3.5-plus-2026-02-15.

Qwen3.8 Max
