This r/StableDiffusion thread discusses the community debate around choosing between FLUX.2 [klein] 9B and Qwen Image Edit 2511 as an image editing model, two strong open-source contenders in the space. FLUX.2 [klein] 9B surpassed even FLUX.2 [dev] in image editing benchmarks , while Qwen Image Edit 2511 is an enhanced version of the 2509 model with a focus on better character consistency, especially in multi-person scenarios. Key tradeoffs include Qwen Image Edit being considered higher quality and more versatile but slower, while FLUX.2 [klein] 4B distilled can generate images in roughly 5 seconds versus ~40 seconds for Qwen 2511 , and Qwen Image Edit 2511 holds an Apache 2.0 license making it fully open and commercially usable compared to FLUX.2 [klein]'s more restrictive licensing
