Subject retention: 83.6% · Edge blending: 0.225 · Contact shadow score: 0 · Resolution retention: 200%
- Fixture findings
On the 1024×1024 skincare bottle anchor, Seedream 5 Flash upscales output to 2048×2048 (200%) with realistic marble podium and morning greenery (10/10 background richness), but full-frame generative editing yields 83.6% subject retention (PSNR 17.36 dB) rather than a pixel-locked overlay.
- Original historical observation
Renders an atmospheric marble podium with glass dividers and warm morning greenery at 2048×2048 resolution without watermarks; because it applies instruction-based full-image editing rather than a locked alpha cutout overlay, warm lighting reflections slightly restyle the bottle surface.
