What is new in Gemini 2.5 Flash is hybrid reasoning. Google lets developers turn thinking on or off and control it through a budget. The stable GA model remains served, but API access is now limited to users with prior 2.5 usage. Gemini 3 Flash Preview is the later model in the documented line.

The model card lists limitations in causal understanding, complex logical deduction, and counterfactual reasoning.
