Midjourney V8 achieves 5x faster generation but premium features cost 4x more
Midjourney has released an early version of V8 for community testing, achieving roughly 5x faster image generation and introducing native 2K resolution via --hd mode. However, premium features including --hd, --q 4, style references, and mood boards cost four times as much as standard generation, with Relax mode unavailable at launch.
