This comparison also has unusually clean evidence: A direct test ran GPT Image 2 and Nano Banana 2 through the same architecture tasks and showed how the outcome changed when the prompt became more explicit. [Try it on Mixer AI](https://mixerai.org/?dl=kb_gpt-image-2-vs-nano-banana-2#/canvas) ## Key differences Both support text and image workflows up to 4K in Mixer AI; GPT Image 2 accepts up to 16 input photos and Nano Banana 2 up to 14. In one side-by-side test, Nano Banana 2 did better on the simple exterior and floor-plan task, while GPT Image 2 was preferred in separate people and interior-mood checks. The test also showed prompt sensitivity: Nano Banana 2 needed an explicit instruction not to alter the camera angle in one exterior run. ## Specifications | Spec | GPT Image 2 | Nano Banana 2 | Generation modes | from text / photo editing | from text / photo editing | Input photos | up to 16 | up to 14 | Transparent background | Yes | No | Resolutions | 1K / 2K / 4K | 1K / 2K / 4K | Aspect ratios | 9:16 / 16:9 / 1:1 / auto / 4:3 / 3:4 | 9:16 / 16:9 / 1:1 / auto / 2:3 / 3:2 / 3:4 / 4:3 / 4:5 / 5:4 / 21:9 / 4:1 / 1:4 / 8:1 / 1:8 | Prompt limit | 20,000 characters | 20,000 characters | Price, 1 image · 1K | 6 coins | 8 coins ## What the direct test actually showed These are observations from one architecture test, not a universal model ranking. - With the same simple exterior prompt, the reviewer saw more varied vegetation and clearer roof shingles from Nano Banana 2; GPT Image 2 showed repeated-looking textures. - With a more detailed prompt, Nano Banana 2 produced a strong image but changed the viewpoint. A retry with an explicit instruction not to alter the camera angle fixed it. - In the people test, the reviewer gave the round to GPT Image 2 because the Nano Banana 2 scene felt emptier and the mood was weaker. - For a floor plan generated from a viewport, Nano Banana 2 preserved the object count more accurately and won that round in the review. ## Where the result changes The same video does not reduce the comparison to one winner. Some interior tasks were close, while other rounds split between the two models. - A simple prompt and a detailed prompt changed the relative result on the same exterior. - Geometry and viewpoint preservation need to be checked separately from materials, lighting and overall realism. - The reviewer's own closing point was task-dependent: one tool did better in one case, the other in another. ## Limits of this comparison The test used a third-party interface. The specification table above reflects the current Mixer AI product instead; external controls shown in the video are not assumed to exist here. For a real project, run the same input and prompt through both models rather than treating one round as a general verdict. ## What we compare [ GPT Image 2 In Mixer AI: generation and editing, up to 16 input images, 1K/2K/4K. ](https://mixerai.org/en/knowledge/image/gpt-image-2/)[ Nano Banana 2 In Mixer AI: generation and editing, up to 14 input images, 15 aspect options, 1K/2K/4K. ](https://mixerai.org/en/knowledge/image/nano-banana-2/) ## FAQ Which model won the full architecture test? There was no single overall winner. Nano Banana 2 took several exterior and floor-plan checks; GPT Image 2 was preferred for separate people and interior-mood tasks, while some interiors were close. Can both models edit uploaded images in Mixer AI? Yes. The current Mixer AI interface supports generation and editing for both. ## See also [GPT Image 2 vs GPT Image 2.5→](https://mixerai.org/en/knowledge/compare/gpt-image-2-vs-gpt-image-2-5/)[Nano Banana 2 vs Nano Banana 2 Lite→](https://mixerai.org/en/knowledge/compare/nano-banana-2-vs-nano-banana-2-lite/)[Nano Banana 2 vs Seedream 5.0 Pro→](https://mixerai.org/en/knowledge/compare/nano-banana-2-vs-seedream-5-0-pro/) [Try it on Mixer AI](https://mixerai.org/?dl=kb_gpt-image-2-vs-nano-banana-2#/canvas)
