› On October 20, 2026, I put FLUX 3 Max through the exact same five benchmark scenes I have been using since October 8 to evaluate video models in my AI video arena.
› The result: an 8.8/10 average, matching Wan 3.0 and landing just 0.1 points behind the base FLUX 3 Video model.
› Rivals like Kling 3.0 Standard (6.6), Seedance 2.5 (5.6), and Veo 3.1 Lite (4.8) fell far behind, tripped up primarily by Polish diacritics.
› In the same test run, I also evaluated the newly added Grok Imagine Video 1.5 Lite, which posted a 7.0/10 score for just ten cents.
