This page therefore does not label one as universally better: the table shows compatible inputs, limits and pricing, while the visual section separates valid A/B checks from different workflow stages.

Kling 2.6 Motion Control: A photo supplies the character; a video supplies the performance, from dance to conversational gestures. ## Specifications | Spec | Kling 4.0 Flash | Kling 2.6 Motion Control | Generation modes | from text / from first frame / from references | Motion Control | First frame | Yes | No | Input photos | up to 7 | 1, required | Input videos | up to 5 | 1, required | Input video length | No | 3–30 s | Minimum duration | 3 s | 3 s | Maximum duration | 20 s | 30 s | Resolutions | 720p | 720p / 1080p | Aspect ratios | 9:16 / 16:9 / 1:1 / auto / 21:9 | Follows the input | Prompt limit | 8,000 characters | 2,500 characters | Price, 1 s · 720p | — coins | — coins ## What to compare visually Do not force tools with different jobs into the same test. First compare the inputs each one accepts and the output it is meant to produce. If they share a workflow, run an A/B test on the same source; otherwise judge each at its own stage: generation, Motion Control, avatar creation or upscaling. ## What to inspect with Kling 4.0 Flash A lighter Kling 4.0: clips of 3–20 seconds in 720p from text and references, or from a start frame. - Text and references: a prompt up to 8000 characters, up to 7 photos and up to 5 videos totaling up to 20 seconds; the Video sound switch keeps the sound of reference videos. - Start frame: one optional photo; without it choose 16:9, 9:16, 1:1 or 21:9, with it the format follows the photo. - Flash gives 720p and up to 20 seconds only; choose Kling 4.0 for 1080p and 30 seconds. - Start frame mode accepts no video: videos belong to references mode only. ## What to inspect with Kling 2.6 Motion Control A photo supplies the character; a video supplies the performance, from dance to conversational gestures. - One photo and one video as inputs; 720p or 1080p output. - Video orientation supports up to 30 seconds; image orientation up to 10 seconds. - A written prompt cannot replace the required motion video. - Occluded limbs, sharp turns and movement outside the frame can transfer incorrectly. ## How to run a fair comparison - Identify the workflow stage first: create new media, transfer motion, make a talking avatar, or improve an existing file. - Compare specifications only where they mean the same thing: accepted inputs, limits, available resolution and the real price of the needed mode. - If a shared workflow exists, use the same source. If it does not, do not infer visual quality from non-equivalent outputs. - Tools for different stages can be used sequentially rather than as substitutes. ## Sources Prices, availability and specifications come from the Mixer AI catalog. This is not an independent test: try both models on the same task before choosing. - [Prices and availability — Mixer AI catalog](https://mixerai.org/knowledge/catalog.json) ## What we compare [ Kling 4.0 Flash A lighter Kling 4.0: clips of 3–20 seconds in 720p from text and references, or from a start frame. ](https://mixerai.org/en/knowledge/video/kling-4-0-flash/) [ Kling 2.6 Motion Control A photo supplies the character; a video supplies the performance, from dance to conversational gestures. ](https://mixerai.org/en/knowledge/video/kling-2-6-motion/) ## FAQ How should I compare Kling 4.0 Flash and Kling 2.6 Motion Control fairly? Compare purpose and inputs first. Test any shared workflow on the same source; evaluate different workflows separately by output quality, constraints and the price of that stage. Are both models available in Mixer AI? Yes. Both tools are in the current Mixer AI catalog. They are often used one after the other: for example, one model makes the video and another improves the file. Which model is better? There is no single winner. First rule out the model that lacks the duration, first or last frame, sound or resolution you need, then compare clips on your own scene. The table highlights only measurable differences. ## See also [Kling 4.0 vs Kling 2.6 Motion Control: specs and price→](https://mixerai.org/en/knowledge/compare/kling-4-0-vs-kling-2-6-motion/) [Kling 4.0 Flash vs Kling 3.0 Motion Control: specs and price→](https://mixerai.org/en/knowledge/compare/kling-4-0-flash-vs-kling-3-0-motion/) [Kling 2.1 vs Kling 2.6 Motion Control: specs and price→](https://mixerai.org/en/knowledge/compare/kling-2-1-vs-kling-2-6-motion/) [Kling 2.5 Turbo Pro vs Kling 2.6 Motion Control: specs and price→](https://mixerai.org/en/knowledge/compare/kling-2-5-turbo-vs-kling-2-6-motion/) [Try it on Mixer AI](https://mixerai.org/en/#/canvas?dl=kb_kling-4-0-flash-vs-kling-2-6-motion)
