There is no shared resolution for a direct price comparison, so each price includes its setting and is not highlighted as cheaper.

What to compare visually

For a fair A/B test, use the same scene and, where both modes allow it, the same first frame. Inspect motion continuity, character and object consistency, physics and contacts, camera behavior, temporal deformation, in-clip cuts and audio synchronization.

Fix the scene, first frame, duration and resolution. Watch the motion across the whole clip and listen to the sound separately. Price the finished clip, not one second.

Which model is better?
