Product Photography — Side-by-Side Results
Prompt
"A 20s woman with shoulder-length wavy brown hair in an oversized gray hoodie and bike shorts holds up a sleek skincare serum bottle near her face, looking just past the phone camera with a casual half-smile, like she’s filming an Instagram Story review. Shot handheld on a smartphone in a real kitchen by a window (natural morning light), but composed like premium product photography: the serum bottle is sharply in focus against a clean, uncluttered pale background with dramatic crisp shadows and a high-end commercial feel."

Flux Ultra 1.1 Strengths
- Exceptional micro-detail for product surfaces (textures, edges, embossing, subtle wear) in hero-style product-only shots
- Strong photorealistic lighting and shadow falloff, helping products sit naturally on seamless backdrops or studio setups
- Premium-looking reflections and specular highlights for glass, glossy plastics, and coated packaging
- Great for high-end, “camera-like” realism where the product itself is the focal point
Nano Banana Pro Strengths
- Industry-leading text rendering for labels, packaging copy, and on-product typography—useful when readability matters
- Up to 4K output options for marketing deliverables (ecommerce banners, storefront hero images, and crop-friendly assets)
- Multimodal understanding can improve adherence to product references and layout intent for flat lays and unboxing compositions
- Marketing-grade polish that helps with packaging-forward scenes (boxes, inserts, instruction cards, branded elements)
Verdict
Flux Ultra 1.1 is the better pick when your priority is photorealistic product-only imagery—especially premium materials, clean studio lighting, and close-up detail. At 16 credits per image, it can be a cost-effective option for iterating on hero shots where text accuracy is less critical.
Nano Banana Pro is the stronger choice for packaging- and label-driven product photography, flat lays with multiple branded items, and unboxing scenes where readable text and high resolution matter. Pricing scales with resolution (22 credits at 1K/2K, 44 credits at 4K), making it ideal when you specifically need 4K deliverables or typography you can trust.
