Full comparisonCompare Models (select 4)
When the goal is photorealism—images that read as genuine camera captures—small differences in lighting behavior, surface detail, and artifact control matter. Nano Banana Pro and Seedream 4.5 both produce high-quality outputs in Influencer Studio, but they excel in different parts of a hyperrealistic workflow.
This comparison focuses on how each model handles lifelike skin and materials, natural depth-of-field, believable shadows, and the “no-AI-tells” standard (clean edges, consistent geometry, and minimal hallucinated details). We’ll also factor in practical considerations like text accuracy, editing flexibility, resolution, and credit efficiency.
Photorealistic — Side-by-Side Results
Prompt
"Hyperrealistic photorealistic selfie-style photo of a 22–28-year-old woman with shoulder-length wavy dark brown hair, minimal makeup and a few natural skin blemishes, wearing an oversized gray hoodie and black leggings, holding an iced latte and looking slightly past the phone camera with a relaxed half-smile. Candid “morning café check-in” moment at a small neighborhood coffee shop by a window with soft natural daylight, background includes a laptop, pastry plate, and subtle street reflection in the glass. Shot on a phone camera feel with true-to-life lighting physics, shallow depth of field, crisp skin texture and realistic grain—authentic Instagram story vibe, not editorial."

Verdict

Choose Seedream 4.5 if photorealism is part of an editing-heavy workflow. Its image-to-image capabilities make it a practical pick for iterating on a realistic base image—especially when you need multiple rounds of targeted changes without rebuilding the scene from scratch.
