Read article →ComparisonsSeedream V5 Pro vs V5 Lite vs 4.5: Same-Input TestSeedream V5 Pro, V5 Lite, and 4.5 compared on five exact prompts with one frozen Mila input, verified prompt hashes, fixed framing, and all 15 outputs retained.
Read article →Rendered every requested string in the poster and product prompts. Its first outputs were clean and legible, though the poster moved away from the requested condensed type and the product shot omitted the reflective pool.
View evidence profile →Matched the largest share of AI Photo's five briefs, including the serum layout, direct-flash portrait style, and directional motion snapshot. It still failed the strict risograph object test.
View evidence profile →The most reliable finisher in AI Photo's 30-row Seedream portrait review, with particularly strong close-face detail and anatomy. It did not win every visual comparison.
View evidence profile →A strong portrait option when composition and candid camera feel matter. In AI Photo's broad saved-output review, Lite won more direct editorial calls than Pro despite one missing output.
View evidence profile →Still competitive on prompt composition and scene completeness. It remains useful as a baseline because newer Seedream routes do not uniformly replace its strengths.
View evidence profile →A capable general image route with strong instruction following in AI Photo's retained comparisons. Its visible behavior should be judged task by task rather than from a single overall score.
View evidence profile →Produced the strongest poster layout in AI Photo's five-prompt first-output test and clean anatomy in the diner portrait. It missed the exact clock time and crate count in the constrained illustration.
View evidence profile →A strong reference-combination and editing route with useful evidence in AI Photo's mirror-selfie benchmark. Its task-level completion and moderation behavior remain visible row by row.
