Tested: Generates 4K Images in 1 Minute — The Clock Problem Is Finally Solved
Just now, Google officially released its most powerful image generation and editing model, Nano Banana 2 (Gemini 3.1 Flash Image). The model has gone live across Google’s full product lineup, including the Gemini app, Search, and AI Studio.
Nano Banana 2 combines Pro-level capability with Flash-level speed, delivering comprehensive upgrades in world knowledge, image quality, reasoning ability, and subject consistency. In benchmark tests, it significantly outperforms leading models such as GPT-Image 1.5, Seedream 5.0 Lite, and Grok Imagine Image Pro. When paired with thinking mode and text/image search tools, it comprehensively surpasses Nano Banana Pro.
I tried Nano Banana 2 firsthand and found that it delivers enhanced realism in image detail, better-than-expected instruction accuracy, improved text rendering, stronger understanding of traditional Chinese culture, and a notable improvement in handling complex scenes.
For instance, when we prompted both Nano Banana 2 and Nano Banana Pro with the same description of a “60-year-old Asian fisherman,” the former produced noticeably more realistic results with richer detail and higher instruction-following accuracy.
