"The new model will replace Gemini 2.5 Flash as the default inside the Gemini app, and it's headed to Google Search, too. Its arrival comes one month after the launch of Gemini 3 Pro, which showed advancements in reasoning, coding, and its ability to process images, text, and videos simultaneously. Google says Gemini 3 Flash "retains this foundation, combining Gemini 3's Pro-grade reasoning with Flash-level latency, efficiency and cost.""
"Tulsee Doshi, Google DeepMind's senior director and head of product, tells The Verge that the jump to Gemini 3 Flash will be a "huge upgrade" for most users. "With Gemini 3 Flash... it'll be a faster turnaround from a latency perspective," Doshi says, adding that you'll also see "more detailed, nuanced answers" when compared to Gemini 2.5 Flash. Gemini 3 Flash also outperforms the last-gen flagship, Gemini 2.5 Pro, while operating at a "fraction of the cost," according to Google."
"In addition to launching inside the Gemini app globally, Gemini 3 Flash is becoming the default model powering AI Mode in Google Search, which previously ran on 2.5 Flash. Google is bringing Gemini 3 Flash to developers as well. It's coming to Google AI Studio, the Gemini API, Google Antigravity, Gemini CLI, Android Studio, and Vertex AI."
Gemini 3 Flash is an optimized version of Google’s flagship Gemini model that combines Gemini 3 Pro-grade reasoning with Flash-level latency, efficiency, and reduced cost. The model replaces Gemini 2.5 Flash as the default in the Gemini app and becomes the default for AI Mode in Google Search. Performance improvements include stronger reasoning, coding, and multimodal processing of images, text, and video, producing faster turnarounds and more detailed, nuanced answers. Google reports that Gemini 3 Flash outperforms Gemini 2.5 Pro while operating at a fraction of the cost and can generate plans from videos and images in seconds. Developer access will be provided through Google AI Studio, the Gemini API, Antigravity, CLI, Android Studio, and Vertex AI.
