A closer look
Two variants, one release
OpenAI introduced GPT Image 2.5 on September 8, 2026. Sunburst is positioned around quality and Flare around speed. Treat those as starting points for a comparison: a useful production choice also depends on whether the image follows your brief and how much refinement it needs.
For an editing task, describe both the change and the details to preserve. Compare the two variants using the same reference and settings. Inspect small lettering, product shape, and the boundary between changed and unchanged areas before selecting a result.
