Social Media Ad — Side-by-Side Results

Prompt

"A mid-20s woman with shoulder-length wavy brown hair in a cozy oversized oatmeal sweater and light-wash jeans holds a sleek reusable insulated tumbler with a visible logo, looking just past the phone camera with a relaxed half-smile while walking out of a bright neighborhood café. Candid UGC ad vibe: one hand holding the tumbler up like “my daily coffee hack,” the other holding the phone for a front-facing selfie video, morning window light, latte bar and pastry case softly blurred behind her. Clean, aspirational but real, minimal makeup, natural skin texture, casual Instagram story framing."

Flux Ultra 1.1 Strengths

  • Premium photorealistic output that fits performance-focused ad aesthetics (clean, credible, high-end)
  • Exceptional fine detail for product textures, materials, and close-up hero shots that hold up in high-resolution placements
  • Strong results for lifestyle scenes that need a polished, studio-like finish
  • Great for creating flagship visuals where realism and visual trust are key (beauty, fashion, consumer goods)

Seedream 4.5 Strengths

  • Image-to-image editing for efficient ad iterations (refine composition, style direction, or variations from an existing asset)
  • Versatile styles for testing different creative angles (minimal, bold, editorial, playful) across audiences and platforms
  • High-resolution output suited to multi-placement exports (feed, story, carousel) without feeling soft
  • Well-suited to campaign production workflows where rapid versioning matters (seasonal updates, A/B tests, localization)

Verdict

If your priority is premium, photoreal “hero” ad creative—especially product-forward visuals where texture, lighting, and realism sell the click—Flux Ultra 1.1 is the stronger pick.

If you expect to iterate heavily, adapt an existing concept, or need a single model that can both generate and edit while exploring multiple styles, Seedream 4.5 is typically the more flexible option. With equal per-image cost (16 credits), choose Flux for maximum realism and Seedream for faster creative iteration.
