Product Photography — Side-by-Side Results
Prompt
"A casual TikTok-style close-up shot of a 20s woman with shoulder-length wavy brown hair in a simple white hoodie, holding a sleek minimalist skincare serum bottle toward the phone camera while sitting at a messy kitchen counter; she’s looking just past the lens with a relaxed, candid expression like mid-UGC review. Natural morning window light with soft shadows, but the product is lit like high-end studio product photography—dramatic crisp shadow on a clean white background “card” she’s holding behind it, sharp focus on the label, slight handheld phone-camera vibe. Realistic imperfections (crumbs, mug, keys) in the background blur, vertical 9:16 Instagram story framing."

Grok Imagine Strengths

Verdict
If you need premium, high-fidelity product-only images—especially close-ups where texture, reflections, and a polished studio look matter—Flux Ultra 1.1 is the stronger pick, with a higher per-image cost (16 credits) that aligns to its detail-first output.
If your priority is speed and volume for flat lays, unboxing sequences, and iterative creative testing—plus the ability to guide outputs from an existing image—Grok Imagine offers a more cost-effective workflow at 4 credits per image.
