Adobe Photoshop 2026 is a refreshed flagship image editing experience with a focus on AI: new Generative Fill models, a Harmonize tool for naturally merging objects, improved Generative Upscale for improved image quality, and integration with Adobe Stock and the cloud make work faster, more accurate, and more convenient for photographers and designers.
Feature Update:
- Brushes, sliders and transformations respond instantly.
- Layers, blending modes, and text editing work without lag.
- Complex multi-layered files run smoothly without dropping frames.
- File operations such as opening, filtering, and exporting are faster.
- Controls, dialog boxes, taskbars, and panels have been updated with a new design.
- Improved keyboard navigation, text readability, and contrast to enhance accessibility.
- Quiet mode minimizes pop-ups and notifications to reduce distractions and maintain focus.
The main innovation is the choice of AI models and a new credit system. A key change in working with generative features like Generative Fill is the ability to choose an AI model.
Along with Adobe’s proprietary Firefly model, Photoshop now integrates partner models: Gemini 2.5 (Nano Banana) and FLUX.1 Kontext [pro]. This step opens new horizons for content creation, but also introduces changes to the credit system:
- Adobe Firefly: Standard generation, which will still cost 1 generation credit.
- Affiliate models (Gemini, FLUX): Positioned as a “premium feature” and will cost 10 credits per generation, offering different results for specific queries.
Realistic compositions with the Harmonize feature. This feature is finally out of beta, and creating photorealistic collages is now significantly easier with the Harmonize tool. This feature automatically analyzes the background image and adjusts the colors, lighting, and shadows of the added object so it looks natural in its new environment.
Generative Upscale: Partnership with Topaz Labs. In response to growing demand for image enhancement tools, Adobe has introduced Generative Upscale, developed in partnership with the renowned company Topaz Labs. This feature allows you to increase the resolution of photos (by 2x or 4x) without losing detail. Users can choose from three models:
- Firefly Upscaler: For restoring low resolution images.
- Topaz Gigapixel: For maximum preservation of existing details.
- Topaz Bloom: For adding new, creative details to an image.
The cost of using third-party models will be high: Topaz Gigapixel: 10 or 20 credits depending on the final resolution; Topaz Bloom: 35 credits per operation.
Adobe hasn’t forgotten about basic features, making them smarter and more convenient:
- New “Color and Vibrance” adjustment layer: Allows non-destructive adjustment of temperature, hue, vibrance, and saturation.
- Improved “Select Subject” and “Remove Background”: Thanks to the new on-device processing option, selecting complex objects like hair has become significantly more accurate and faster. You can switch to cloud processing if needed.
