What to compare visually
For a fair A/B test, use the same prompt, aspect ratio and references. Inspect more than overall style: object preservation, geometry, faces and hands, fine detail, text in the frame and unintended changes during editing.
What to inspect with Nano Banana Pro
For images that need composition, references and on-image text to work together.
- Text or up to 8 input photographs.
- 1K, 2K or 4K, 11 aspect ratios and 1, 2 or 4 results per request.
- Text capability does not guarantee correct spelling or an exact brand typeface.
- Eight photos is fewer than Nano Banana 2 accepts; include only useful references.
What to inspect with Recraft
Posters, illustrations and clean graphics from text, plus restyling of a single photo.
- V4 and V4 Pro: text only; aspect ratios 1:1, 4:3, 3:4, 16:9 and 9:16.
- V3 Image: exactly one photo (JPG, PNG or WebP up to 5 MB) and a short description of the changes, up to 1000 characters.
- V4 and V4 Pro accept no references: to change a finished photo, choose V3 Image.
- Check lettering inside the image after generating: text may contain mistakes.
How to run a fair comparison
- Give both models one prompt, one aspect ratio and, for editing tests, the same source photo.
- Look at the small things: hands, small text, product edges and logos fail differently in every model.
- Generate at least three variants per model: one picture shows one seed, not the usual quality.
- Compare cost at the resolution you will actually publish, not at each model's cheapest setting.
