Which one to pick

Where each falls short

Nano Banana Pro

  • Google names the limits itself: small faces, accurate spelling and fine detail are where visual and text fidelity slip.
  • Its real-world knowledge is "extensive but not infallible", particularly for anything data-driven, do not treat a generated chart as a source.
  • Advanced edits such as masked editing or a major lighting change can come out looking unnatural.

GPT Image 2.5

  • Dimensions must be multiples of 16 on both edges, and total pixels have to land between 655,360 and 8,294,400. The Studio only offers sizes that satisfy that, so you will not run into it, but it is why the size list is what it is.
  • The quality setting changes both the reasoning depth and the price, and the difference is not small. It is worth choosing deliberately rather than leaving it.
  • The two highest quality settings are not offered in the Studio yet: the provider publishes no price for them.

Questions

Is GPT Image the model inside ChatGPT?

GPT Image 2.5 is OpenAI's image model. Here you run it directly with its settings, priced per image, next to the other models.

Why does the GPT Image price change so much?

Its quality setting changes both the reasoning depth and the price, and the difference is not small. The studio shows it before you run.

Which edits better?

Both change one thing and leave the rest. Nano Banana Pro is the one to pick for edits that move the camera or the light like a photographer would.
