Seedance 2.5 Tested: Incredible Visuals but 720p Generation Costs Spike 52%
MattVidPro · youtube · 2026-08-12
Creator MattVidPro put Runway's Seedance 2.5 through rigorous testing, throwing complex workflows at it including first-and-last frame linking, old Sora prompts, voice cloning, and full video edits. Results like the alien vlog and Robot City are genuinely incredible, though familiar issues like teleportation, disappearing objects, and broken physics persist.
The bigger issue is the steep pricing: at the tested rate, 5 seconds of 720p video costs about $1.15, roughly 52% more than Seedance 2.0. While the model represents a solid upgrade, the high cost per retry makes its practical value questionable.
