MiniMax H3 vs H3 Max vs Turbo: which to run
Three names, three jobs. MiniMax H3 keeps 2K and reference files. MiniMax H3 Max is the fast lane. Turbo is the cheaper draft lane on this site. The generator below starts on Turbo; switch Model to MiniMax H3 Max for the keeper.
Production preview
They are not the same model
MiniMax H3 is the production model: 768P or 2K, 4 to 15 seconds, and reference inputs — up to nine images, three clips, and three audio files. Use it when the character, the voice, or the 2K master is the point.
MiniMax H3 Max is the fast generation model MiniMax lists next to it. A sentence, a first and last frame, or a reference set in; 5 to 15 seconds back, at 480P, 768P or 1080P on this site. No 2K. In Design Arena's August 2026 image-to-video rankings it scored Elo 1,341 against 1,333 for MiniMax H3, and Design Arena measured more than 50× the speed of MiniMax H3 at the same quality.
MiniMax H3 Max Turbo is this site's cheaper draft lane of that Max family — not a MiniMax official model name. Text or a first/last frame only, same 5 to 15 second window. Hunt the opening on Turbo. Finish the keeper on Max.
This generator runs MiniMax H3 Max and MiniMax H3 Max Turbo. Neither runs official MiniMax H3, so neither offers 2K — but MiniMax H3 Max does run reference to video here, on the same limits as official MiniMax H3 (up to nine images, three clips, and three audio files).

Same official sentence
One garden prompt, three family takes
MiniMax shipped this kitten-and-butterfly sentence with the family. These are official examples, not a test this site ran. Copy the sentence into the generator; it starts on Turbo, then switch Model to MiniMax H3 Max if you want the keeper.
MiniMax H3 — the official garden take
"A white kitten chases a butterfly across a sunlit garden. Gentle camera tracking, natural movement, soft afternoon light filtering through the leaves." This is the production model's official example. On this page the sentence runs on MiniMax H3 Max or Turbo, not official MiniMax H3.
MiniMax H3 Max — the same sentence, keeper lane
The same official sentence on MiniMax H3 Max. Use this lane when the take is the one you would post. The generator starts on Turbo — switch Model to MiniMax H3 Max.
MiniMax H3 Max Turbo — the same sentence, draft lane
The same official sentence on Turbo. Use this lane to burn versions before you spend the keeper pass.
How to choose
Three checks, then one take
- 1
Need 2K master quality?
That's official MiniMax H3, not run here. Need to combine reference photos, clips, or audio instead? MiniMax H3 Max does that on this site.
- 2
Still hunting the opening?
Run MiniMax H3 Max Turbo at 480P. Change one word. Run another. The first short Turbo draft is covered by signup.
- 3
Would you post this take?
Switch to MiniMax H3 Max and finish it. The keeper take needs a plan; signup only covers the first Turbo draft.
Which lane
Match the job to MiniMax H3, H3 Max, or Turbo
One pack shot, a few camera moves
Change the camera, not the product: draft a few moves of the same pack shot on Turbo, then keep the one that works on Max.
A talking-head that changes copy twice a week
One portrait plus a new first line. Max or Turbo on this generator — picture and voice come back in the same file.
A 2K hero shot
Official MiniMax H3's 2K output — not this generator. For a locked character or voice from reference stills, clips, or audio, MiniMax H3 Max's reference-to-video mode runs right here.
H3 Max against other video models
This page settles the MiniMax H3 family: who keeps 2K and reference files, who is the keeper lane on this site, and who is the cheaper draft lane. That is the comparison that changes which button you press here.
Choosing H3 Max against a different video model is a later question. Start from the jobs on this page — 2K and locked reference files versus a 5–15 second take with sound already in the file — and only then look outside the family. This generator runs MiniMax H3 Max and MiniMax H3 Max Turbo; it does not run official MiniMax H3.
Run it here
MiniMax H3 Max and MiniMax H3 Max Turbo live on this site
Official MiniMax H3 does not. Pick the keeper lane or the draft lane.
