PHYSIX OBSERVATION

The focus of Kling 4.0 hands-on tests has shifted from whether it can generate at all to whether it can generate to intent: complex motions like long water sleeves and drum strikes, plus style details such as DV texture and handwritten title cards, are the real bar for today's video models. For users, control over shot composition and reference images, beyond the prompt itself, is becoming the key factor in model selection.
