When to use which
Which one should you pick?
Pick Kling V3 when the shot needs an exact length: anything from 3 to 15 seconds, so a 7-second beat needs no trimming.
Pick Kling V3 when you need 1080p longer than 6 seconds, or when you want to steer the look with up to 4 reference pictures.
Pick Kling V3 when you want sound made with the clip: it has a Generate audio switch.
Pick Hailuo 2.3 for drafts and volume: every clip is 33 credits, so 10 drafts of 10 seconds cost 330 credits, less than one 400-credit pack.
Pick Hailuo 2.3 Fast when you already have a start picture and want the lowest price: 24 credits a clip.
What we have not tested
Have we run a same-prompt test yet?
Not yet. We have not published a same-prompt Kling V3 and Hailuo 2.3 clip pair on Reviral, so this page does not judge which one looks better. The numbers here are prices and settings, not a quality verdict.
You can run the test yourself for 93 credits: a 6-second Kling V3 clip at 720p (60 credits) and a 6-second Hailuo 2.3 clip (33 credits). That fits inside the 100 free credits you get at sign-up.
