Introduce

What is Nano Banana 2?

Nano Banana 2 is the nickname for Gemini 3.1 Flash Image, the image model Google DeepMind released on February 26, 2026. The original Nano Banana went viral in 2025 for its photo editing, and Nano Banana Pro later raised the bar for quality and text in images. Nano Banana 2 combines the two: Google describes it as delivering the advanced world knowledge, quality, and reasoning of Nano Banana Pro at Flash speed.

Because it's built on Gemini, Nano Banana 2 understands what you ask for rather than just matching keywords. It follows long, detailed prompts closely, can turn rough notes into clean diagrams and infographics, and renders text more accurately in many languages. It can also look things up: with web search on, it pulls real-time information and reference pictures from the web, so famous buildings, specific products, and current events look right instead of generic. For storytelling, Google says it keeps up to five characters and up to 14 objects consistent across a workflow.

On PixPal you can use Nano Banana 2 for both text-to-image and image-to-image. Describe a new picture, or upload up to 14 photos to edit, combine, or restyle. Pick a resolution of 0.5K, 1K, 2K (the default), or 4K, and choose from 15 aspect ratio options—including extra-tall 1:4 and 1:8 and extra-wide 4:1 and 8:1 shapes for banners and long scrolling graphics.

What you can make with Nano Banana 2

Everyday visuals for social media, marketing, learning, and storytelling—made fast.

Nano Banana 2 uses Gemini's knowledge to organize the information and lay it out clearly. It's handy for blog posts, lesson slides, social carousels, and how-to guides—just double-check facts and numbers before you publish.

Comics, storyboards, and character series

Create a character once, then place them in new scenes while their face, hair, and outfit stay the same. Google says Nano Banana 2 can keep up to five characters consistent at once, which makes it practical for picture books, comic strips, film storyboards, and mascot campaigns. Upload your earlier images as references for the most reliable match.

Real places, products, and current events

Ask for a view of Mount Fuji from a plane window, a travel poster of a real city, or a scene about this week's news. With web search turned on, the model looks up real information and pictures first, so landmarks, weather, and details match reality instead of being guessed. It's useful for travel content, local marketing, and timely social posts.

Nano Banana 2 also supports 4:1 and 8:1 for website banners and email headers, and 1:4 and 1:8 for tall scrolling graphics, bookmarks, and Pinterest-style pins. You can still pick the usual 1:1, 4:5, 9:16, and 16:9 for Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube thumbnails.

Pro-level quality at a lower price

Nano Banana 2 produces rich textures, natural lighting, and sharp detail close to Nano Banana Pro, but it runs faster and costs less. On PixPal, a Nano Banana 2 image uses fewer credits than a Nano Banana Pro image. That makes it a good everyday choice: create more versions, compare them, and keep the one you like.

Combine up to 14 images in one edit

Upload a person, the clothes they should wear, a product, and a location, and ask Nano Banana 2 to put them together. It's a fast way to make outfit try-ons, product lifestyle shots, and mood boards. In your prompt, say what each image is for—"use the hat from image 3 and the sneakers from image 2"—so the model knows what to keep.

From quick 0.5K drafts to 4K

Nano Banana 2 adds a new 0.5K (512px) size that generates quickly—perfect for testing ideas and layouts. When you're happy with the prompt, switch to 2K for web and social, or 4K for print, large banners, and images you want to crop. Each run creates a new image, so expect small differences between sizes.
