Our review
Midjourney's images simply look the best. Its default aesthetic — dramatic lighting, rich color, confident composition — means even lazy prompts return gallery-worthy results.
V6 dramatically improved prompt following and text rendering, closing the gap with rivals on control while keeping its signature look. Style references and personalization let brands lock in a consistent visual identity.
The web app has replaced the old Discord-only workflow, making it far more approachable. For pure visual quality, it is still our number one image model.
