A Redditor built a comparison website pitting Fibo 2 edit turbo, Klein 9b, and Qwen 2.1 turbo at 1 megapixel. Verdict: Qwen 2.1 remains the best all-rounder for his use cases (inpainting, product/lifestyle photography). Key caveats: all three models are highly prompt-sensitive (he enhanced prompts via GPT 6 Luna with per-model JSON/prose formats); Fibo breaks above 2MP while Qwen and Klein scale to 4MP with dramatically better results; tests were 1-shot, int8, same seed, with Fibo/Klein at 4 steps vs Qwen's 8. Bria says Fibo edit turbo isn't meant for text2image. All prompts and workflows are open-sourced.
