"Some specific improvements of the model include support for up to 10 reference images, meaning you can incorporate a lot more elements from different pictures in your final product; improved photorealism and detail; more accurate text rendering, a task image generating models frequently struggle with; better prompt following; and a better understanding of real-world knowledge, according to Black Forest Labs."
"If these updates all sound familiar, it's because Google's Nano Banana Pro flaunted the same upgrades when it was released last week. In fact, Black Forest Labs published benchmarks that compared its performance to that of leading models, including Google's. While Flux 2 Pro had an ELO score (a rating used for head-to-head model performance) slightly below that of Nano Banana 2 (another term for Pro), the cost of Flux's model is lower compared to the much higher cost of the Nano Banana model, as seen below."
Black Forest Labs released Flux 2, a next-generation image generator available as Flux 2 Pro and Flux 2 Flex. Flux 2 Pro targets highest image quality while Flux 2 Flex balances speed and quality. The model supports up to 10 reference images, improves photorealism, detail, and text rendering, and follows prompts more accurately with better real-world knowledge. Benchmarks compare Flux 2 against leading models including Google's Nano Banana Pro, showing competitive ELO scores. Flux 2 delivers similar upgrades at a lower cost and is available for users to try for free.
