Nano Banana 2.1 is the ChatImg row for a faster still than Nano Banana 2, with faces and layout held from the photos you upload. It is a separate model. The older Nano Banana 2 row is still there.

Features

New image, or an edit from references

You pick Nano Banana 2.1 yourself. ChatImg does not swap it for Nano Banana 2. Up to 14 reference images can go with an edit.

Text to image

Write the scene. Output is 1K unless you are on a product that asks for 2K or 4K. ChatImg charges the 1K price.

References stay in the frame

Upload the person, the product, or the layout you want held. The 6 Oct 2026 announcement is about subject consistency. The edit follows those images plus your prompt.

1K, 2K, and 4K on the shared catalog
