By skyforbes A lot of people are saying it’s clearly worse than Nano, but from my testing, in most real-world use cases, the results are actually much closer than I expected.
It’s not perfect, but it definitely holds up in many practical scenarios.
So far, I’ve found it performs especially well in these types of use cases:
- Social media posts
- Infographics / educational visuals
- YouTube thumbnails
- Posters / flyers
What really stands out is the pricing:
Seedream is $0.04 per image, so you can generate about 3 images for the cost of 1 Nano image. For anyone generating at scale, that’s a big deal.
I manually tested and organized 100+ real generation cases into categories just to better understand where it works best and where it still falls short.
If anyone’s curious, I collected everything here:

Genuinely curious to hear from others:
- Has anyone else tested Seedream 4.5 yet?
- In which use cases do you think it really holds up vs Nano?
