MiniMax 02 from Chinese AI startup Hailuo is one of the few models to match Google’s Veo 3 in terms of physics and visual realism. It's able to create stunning real-world scenes from simple or complex prompts and is a massive upgrade on the previous generation.
It doesn’t have the audio capabilities of Veo 3 but you can create video from image or text and use the consistent character feature to ensure consistency across videos. There are 6 or 10 second video generation options and 720p or 1080p resolutions.
