Nano Banana 2 Brings Pro Image Quality to Gemini Flash Speed

· Updated

Nano Banana 2 (Gemini 3.1 Flash Image) combines Nano Banana Pro's intelligence with Flash inference speed. It maintains consistency across five characters and 14 objects in a workflow — keeping storyboards and ad campaigns coherent. World knowledge grounding uses real-time search data for accurate infographics, diagrams, and localized signage. Precision text rendering handles marketing mockups and multilingual image translations. Output covers 512px to 4K.

Previously teams had to choose between fast-but-rough or slow-but-polished generation. Nano Banana 2 closes that gap, rolling out as the default across Gemini app, Google Search, AI Studio, Google Ads, Flow, and Google Cloud.

Developers can access gemini-3.1-flash-image-preview in AI Studio and the Gemini API at Flash-tier pricing. Pro and Ultra subscribers retain Nano Banana Pro access via the three-dot regenerate menu for high-fidelity tasks.
