Google: Gemini 3.5 Flash-Lite
Gemini 3.5 Flash-Lite is the leftover cheap Flash-Lite row on the live Gemini models page, not the 2026 Flash default. This site already has Gemini 3.5 Flash and Gemini 3.7 Flash.
Compare Gemini 3.7 Flash if you wanted the live Flash path, Gemini 3.5 Flash if you wanted the leftover 3.5 Flash slug, and GPT-5.6 Luna if you wanted a current cheap OpenAI sibling.
Key Features
