# Gemini 2.5 Flash Image on YingTu

> Use the original Nano Banana model for low-cost 1K generation, conversational editing, and existing Gemini image integrations.

`gemini-2.5-flash-image` is the original stable Nano Banana model. On YingTu,
it is the lowest-priced option in the family and keeps the established Gemini
native request shape for text-to-image and image editing.

Google positions the upstream model for high-volume creation, conversational
editing, and low-latency visual workflows. Its stable model ID replaced the
deprecated `gemini-2.5-flash-image-preview` ID. See Google's current
[model page](https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/models/gemini-2.5-flash-image).

<Info>
  Use the exact stable ID in the URL. Do not use the old preview ID or send
  `imageSize`; YingTu treats this model as an approximately 1K output tier.

## What YingTu verified

A September 2, 2026 live run completed synchronous generation, asynchronous
generation, and inline image editing. The tested 1:1 outputs were 1024 × 1024
PNG files. One synchronous response returned a text part before the image,
confirming that clients must scan every response part.

This is not a quality benchmark. The recommendation combines current upstream
positioning, YingTu price, and verified API behavior; evaluate visual quality
with your own prompts and source images.
