My first impression after testing Gemma 4 against Qwen 3.5

​ I have been doing some early comparisons between Gemma 4 and Qwen 3.5, including a frontend generation task and a broader look at the benchmark picture. My overall impression is that Gemma 4 is good. It feels clearly improved and the frontend results were actually solid. The model can produce attractive layouts, follow the structure of the prompt well, and deliver usable output. So this is definitely not a case of Gemma being bad. That said, I still came away feeling that Qwen 3.5 was better in these preliminary tests.
