What Wan V2.2 is good at — and what it's not

Wan V2.2 is a simple, fixed-length text-to-video tier — a prompt, an aspect ratio, a resolution, and a 5-second clip. There's nothing to tune beyond the basics, which makes it an easy entry point for quick prompt-to-video work: short social clips, concept drafts, and filler B-roll where you want output fast without managing parameters.

Output runs up to 720p (480p / 540p / 720p) across three aspect ratios — 16:9, 1:1, and 9:16 — covering widescreen, square, and vertical. The fixed 5-second length keeps it focused on short, self-contained beats.

Where it sits in the line: Wan V2.2 Turbo is the cheaper, faster variant of the same tier; Wan V2.5 adds 1080p and 10-second clips; Wan V2.6 adds audio and multi-shot; Wan V2.7 is the flagship. For the cheapest drafts in any line, Pika V2.2. Wan V2.2's sweet spot is simple, short text-to-video.

A reasonable mental model: default to Wan V2.2 for quick, simple 5-second clips, drop to V2.2 Turbo for the cheapest takes, or step up to V2.5 / V2.6 / V2.7 for more length, resolution, and audio.
