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

- Left: my input photo
- Prompt: "show the man holding this in the bed"
- Right: nano-banana's output

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.

Here is a direct comparison that I could not get to work accurately… pic.twitter.com/yIYHqQjVEm

Introducing Gemini 2.5 Flash Image (aka nano-banana), our SOTA image generation and editing model 🍌

As you might have already seen, this model excels at character consistency, creative edits, and has Gemini's world knowledge! pic.twitter.com/kJQVJcMPE6

+1 on this
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

Having some fun with Nano Banana from Google. I can finally create my adult animated series, "The Life of an AI Bro." 🍌🍌🍌 pic.twitter.com/XFrX0R4OEf

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

What I find most interesting is how good it is for changing a character’s expression and gestures.

Here I used the image of Jinx you see on the left, and I tweaked her… pic.twitter.com/xkkJpXwnJ0

Nano-banana is out! 🤏🍌

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.

1/ INSANE (LONG) THREAD.

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

Playing around more with nano-banana, trying to create a thumbnail based on some examples. When the ask is ambiguous, as with all AI you get a sloppy/incoherent response. 1/ pic.twitter.com/aWaEaEGhub

nano banana finally makes it easy to do what normal people want to do with images (just say what you want and have it happen with high fidelity)

this image explaining how the prompt works was also made by the model (you can see it wasn't perfect though...) pic.twitter.com/dYFZ10g7sm

Nano Banana is kinda crazy, Google did a solid job with this one!

I’ll be sharing more of what I’ve created with Nano Banana soon 🍌 pic.twitter.com/ls2xHMTh3q

The results from Google’s new image model “nano-banana” are truly amazing.
I simply asked it to create a photo of someone looking straight ahead.@OfficialLoganK pic.twitter.com/LWH1jM1Pki

It's official! Nano-Banana was Google all along (as if it was a big secret - lol). I did have early access but wasn't allowed to officially confirm it was Google until today.

But the really good news is that it's available to everyone now in the Gemini App! No more LMArena… pic.twitter.com/uxoZBOYF9D
