Google drops Gemini 2.5 Flashlight

Google just dropped Gemini 2. 5 flashlight and it's their fastest, cheapest AI model ever. But here's the crazy part. I spent hours testing this thing and the results shocked me. We're talking about an AI that costs almost nothing but beats expensive models at coding games. I built multiple games in seconds. I compared it head-to-head with premium models, and what I found will blow your mind. This could change everything about how we use AI. Hey, if we haven't met already, I'm the digital

Introduction to Julian's digital avatar

avatar of Julian Goldie, CEO of SEO agency Goldie Agency. Whilst he's helping clients get more leads and customers, I'm here to help you get the latest AI updates. And today, we're talking about something massive. Google
0:39

Just announced hours ago

just announced Gemini 2. 5 Flashlight. And when I say just announced, I mean like hours ago. Now, Google's calling
0:46

Google's bold claims about performance

this their fastest and cheapest 2. 5 model yet. But here's what got my attention. They're claiming it beats their old models on everything. Coding, math, science, reasoning, everything. So, I did what I always do. I ignored
1:01

Real-world testing approach

the marketing hype and I tested it myself for hours. Real world tests. No BS benchmarks that don't mean anything. I built games. I created landing pages. I compared it directly with Gemini 2. 5 Pro, which cost way more money. And what I found was shocking. Because here's the
1:17

Shocking cost vs performance results

thing, this model costs almost nothing to use. We're talking fractions of a cent per request. But in some tests, it actually beat the expensive models. That's not supposed to happen. So, in
1:29

What we'll cover in this video

this video, I'm going to show you exactly what Gemini 2. 5 flashlight can do. The real results, not the marketing fluff. I'll show you where it crushes the competition and where it falls flat on its face. Plus, I'll show you exactly how to use it for free right now. No credit card needed. Because if this model is as good as Google claims, it could save you hundreds or even thousands of dollars on AI costs while actually giving you better results. But first, let me explain what this thing
1:53

What Gemini 2.5 Flashlight actually is

actually is and why it matters. So, here's what Google just dropped on us. Gemini 2. 5 flashlight is their new preview model. And when they say preview, they mean you can use it right now for free. No credit card, no payment required. Just go to AI Studio and start using it. Now, Google's calling this their most costefficient and fastest 2. 5 model yet. But here's what makes it different from everything else they've released. It comes in two modes
2:18

Two modes: thinking vs non-thinking

thinking mode and non-thinking mode. In thinking mode, the AI actually thinks through problems before answering. Like, you can literally see it working through the problem step by step. This gives you better results, but takes a bit longer and costs more if you're using the API. In non-thinking mode, it just gives you answers fast. super fast. Like crazy fast. And here's the kicker. Even in non-thinking mode, it still beats the old 2. 0 flashlight on everything. Coding, math, science, reasoning, everything. But the real question is
2:49

Real-world testing begins

how does it perform in the real world? Because benchmarks are nice and all, but I care about one thing. Can this thing actually help me build stuff that works? So, I put it through my brutal real world test, the same test I use for every AI model.
3:06

Space Invaders game test

I started with something simple. I asked it to build a Space Invaders game. Complete HTML, CSS, JavaScript, one prompt, make it look amazing, and trigger loads of dopamine. Now, here's
3:18

Head-to-head with Gemini 2.5 Pro

where it gets interesting. I ran the exact same prompt on Gemini 2. 5 Pro at the same time. Remember, 2. 5 Pro costs way more money. Is supposed to be the smart, powerful model. Flashlight finished first. Way first. But that's
3:32

Flashlight wins on first try

not the crazy part. The crazy part is flashlight actually worked perfectly on the first try. The game looked good. It played smooth. Everything worked. Gemini 2. 5 Pro. It failed. Completely failed the oneshot test. Didn't even create a working game. I'm staring at my screen thinking, "Wait, what? The cheap fast model just beat the expensive smart model. But maybe that was just luck. "
3:55

Dopamine drums app test

So, I tested it again. This time, I asked both models to build a dopamine drums app. Something visual with sound effects. Again, one prompt. flashlight coded it out super fast. Added all the visual effects. But here's the thing, it forgot the audio. So, I just told it add audio and boom, fixed instantly. Gemini 2. 5 Pro still coding, taking forever. And when it finally finished, the output was worse. Way worse. Now, I'm starting
4:20

Something's going on here...

to think something's going on here. So, I pushed it harder. I asked it to build
4:22

Sonic game challenge

a Sonic game as a single HTML file. This is where most AI models start to break down. Flashlight delivered a playable Sonic game. Not perfect, but playable. The graphics were basic, but it worked. Then I asked it to build a Flappy Bird
4:34

Flappy Bird perfect execution

game. Again, one shot. And you know what? It nailed it. The game worked perfectly. The physics felt right. The difficulty was spot on. I'm playing this Flappy Bird game built by a model that costs almost nothing. And I'm thinking, this changes everything. But wait, there's more. Remember how I said this thing is fast? Let me show you exactly
4:53

Speed demonstration

how fast. I used it to build a complete SEO calculator landing page. Beautiful design, working JavaScript, responsive layout, the whole thing. It took seconds, not minutes, seconds. I've used Claude Sonic 4, GPT4, all the expensive models. None of them code this fast. And the quality, it wasn't perfect, but it was definitely usable for a model that costs almost nothing. The output quality shocked me. But here's where it gets
5:18

Testing outside AI Studio (Cursor IDE)

really interesting. I decided to test it outside of AI Studio. I hooked Flashlight up to Cursor IDE. This is where AI models usually struggle because they're working in a real coding environment, not just spitting out code snippets. I asked it to build a complete landing page for an SEO agency, multiple sections, testimonials, FAQs, the works. It coded the entire thing in under a minute, a complete functional landing page. Now, the design was pretty average. Nothing special, but it worked and it was fast. Compare that to other models that either take forever or give you broken code, and you start to see why this matters. But let's be real
5:56

Where it falls short

here. This model isn't perfect. When I tested it for complex design work, it fell short. The landing pages looked okay, but not amazing. The color choices were safe, but boring. For simple games, it did great. But when I asked it to build more complex interactions, it struggled. And here's something weird I noticed. The outputs were better when I used AI Studio directly compared to using it through other tools like cursor or open router. Same model, same prompts, but the quality dropped when I used it through third party tools. Let me show you some numbers that will blow
6:28

Mind-blowing cost analysis

your mind. I tracked my usage for a full day of heavy testing. Building games, creating landing pages, generating content, debugging code, everything. Total cost with flashlight less than two
6:40

Less than 2 cents vs $30 competitors

cents. Not $2,2. Compare that to Claude Son A4 where the same amount of work will cost around $30 or GPT4 where you're looking at about $25. We're talking about a 99% cost reduction while getting similar or sometimes better results. But here's what makes this even crazier. When I used thinking mode, which gives you the best quality outputs, my cost went up to about 8 cents for the entire day. 8 cents for premium AI reasoning that rivals models costing 300 times more.
7:12

More advanced testing examples

Let me tell you about a few more tests that really opened my eyes. I asked Flashlight to create a crocodile pinball game based on a diagram. Sounds weird, right? But I wanted to test its ability to take visual inspiration and turn it into interactive code. First attempt was pretty basic, just static elements. But when I told it to make the UI more fun and add JavaScript to animate the ball, flippers, and score, it delivered. Not perfect, but functional and fast. Then I
7:38

Content creation capabilities

tested content creation. I asked it to write email sequences, blog posts, some social media content. The quality was surprisingly good. Not as polished as Claude, but definitely usable for most businesses. And here's something interesting. When I tested it for data analysis tasks, passing CSV files, creating charts, analyzing trends, it handled everything I threw at it. This isn't just a coding model. It's a legitimate all-purpose AI assistant that happens to cost almost nothing. Let's
8:07

Technical specifications

talk about what's actually under the hood here. Flashlight comes with a full 1 million token context window. That means you can feed it massive amounts of data and it remembers everything. It supports multimodal input, text, images, video, audio. Though right now, it only outputs text. It connects to Google search and can execute code in real time. So, it's not just generating code, it's actually running and testing it. And here's the kicker. It can scale compute resources dynamically based on your budget. Need faster results? Increase the thinking budget? Want to save money? Turn thinking off. This level of control is something you usually only see in enterprise level AI systems. So, how does Flashlight
8:43

Comparison with major competitors

actually compare to the big players? Against Gemini 2. 5 Pro, it wins on speed every time. And for simple coding tasks, it often gives better results on the first try. Against Claude Son A4 is faster, but Claude gives more polished outputs. Against GPT4, it's way cheaper and faster, but GPT4 handles complex reasoning better. But here's the thing that matters most. For 90% of the stuff you probably want to build, flashlight is good enough and it costs almost nothing. Let me get practical for a minute. Here's how real businesses are
9:12

Real business applications

already using this. Content creation agencies are using it to draft blog posts, social media content, and email sequences. The quality is good enough that you just need light editing. Web development shops are using it to rapidly prototype websites and applications. You can build and test ideas in minutes instead of hours. SEO agencies like mine are using it to analyze competitor content, generate title ideas, and create content outlines at scale. And here's something cool. Because it's so cheap, you can afford to run multiple versions of the same prompt to get different perspectives. Then pick the best one. Try doing that with Claude or GPT4 and you'll go bankrupt. Want to
9:52

How to get started (step-by-step)

try this yourself? Here's exactly how to get started. Go to studio. google. com. Sign in with your Google account. Click on the model dropown and select Gemini 2. 5 flashlight preview. Make sure you turn on thinking mode if you want better results. Though honestly, even non-thinking mode is pretty good for most stuff. Then just start building. Ask it to create whatever you want. Games, websites, tools, whatever. The best part, it's completely free. No credit limits I've hit. No payment required. You can also use it through open router if you want to connect it to other tools, but that will cost you money. Though honestly, the costs are so low it barely matters. Here's what I
10:28

Final verdict and recommendations

think after spending hours testing this thing. Gemini 2. 5 flashlight is not going to replace the top tier models for complex work. If you need the absolute best reasoning or the most polished outputs, stick with Claude Sonic 4 or GPT4. But for everyday AI tasks, building simple apps, creating content, basic coding, this thing is a gamecher. It's fast enough that you don't lose momentum while working. It's cheap enough that you don't worry about costs, and it's good enough that you actually get usable results. Plus, it's free right now. So, there's literally no reason not to try it. Will it stay free forever? Probably not. Google usually starts with free previews, then adds pricing later, but right now, while it's free, this might be the best deal in AI.
