GPT-5.4 Pro vs Gemini 1.5 Pro

Side-by-side benchmark comparison across knowledge, coding, math, and reasoning.

GPT-5.4 Pro is clearly ahead on the aggregate, 94 to 55. The gap is large enough that you do not need to squint at the spreadsheet to see the difference.

GPT-5.4 Pro's sharpest advantage is in coding, where it averages 89 against 27.7. The single biggest benchmark swing on the page is SWE-bench Verified, 86 to 5.

GPT-5.4 Pro is the reasoning model in the pair, while Gemini 1.5 Pro is not. That usually helps on harder chain-of-thought-heavy tests, but it can also mean more latency and more token spend in real use. Gemini 1.5 Pro gives you the larger context window at 2M, compared with 1.05M for GPT-5.4 Pro.

Quick Verdict

Pick GPT-5.4 Pro if you want the stronger benchmark profile. Gemini 1.5 Pro only becomes the better choice if you need the larger 2M context window or you would rather avoid the extra latency and token burn of a reasoning model.
