Choose Nano Banana Pro (Gemini 3 Pro Image Preview) if…

  • you need image inputs
  • you need image generation

Choose Solar Pro 4 if…

  • your own prompt tests favor its output; shared comparable evidence does not identify a unique advantage

The benchmark count includes only results measured with a matching benchmark version and protocol. Arena scores are shown separately. Missing, preliminary, and incompatible data is not treated as a controlled win. Published point-score comparisons are labeled separately when protocol details are incomplete. For text-output models, the verdict also compares token pricing and context windows.
