Nano-banana is probably the best image editing model right now

I found a method with Nano Banana that is more accurate than uploading individual photos. Create a collage with everything on a single image and label each item/person. Then when you type a prompt mention them.

Nano banana's editing is really next level, but for T2I it's not as mind blowing
for this one for example I actually like Qwen better (left/top) than gemini (right/bottom) https://t.co/WFHhKBfyRn pic.twitter.com/GLOFSntamn

I’ve been testing Nano Banana in Google Gemini, and yeah — no doubt it’s the best image editor out there.

Nano-banana is out! 🤏🍌
— Justine Moore (@venturetwins) August 26, 2025
I'm really impressed by this model's language understanding - it can do more with less guidance.
You can say things like "continue this story" and it will write a narrative and then create the image(s) for you.

Nano Banana 🍌 for photo restoration and colorization.
Nothing has ever been like this before. I spent countless hours working on photo restoration and colorization solutions long before AI was a thing. Nothing compares to this. Truly remarkable.… pic.twitter.com/HBFN4WwTw1
