Testing MiniMax H3: Multimodal Inputs Enable Highly Controllable Video Generation
HeyNayeem · x · 2026-08-03
The author conducted a hands-on test of the MiniMax H3 model, specifically its Omni Reference feature. By feeding it a combination of prompts, reference images, video clips, and audio, the model successfully understood how everything fit together.
Key observations:
- Character consistency performed better than expected.
- Strong instruction following, keeping generated text and UI elements clean.
- Output quality is polished enough for ads and product videos.
- Generates native 2K videos (up to 15 seconds) at a surprisingly low cost. This multimodal workflow feels much closer to how creators actually work.
