Question 1

What does this GPT-5.2 vs GPT-5.2 Pro comparison cover?

Accepted Answer

It brings together documented inputs and outputs, token limits, deployment terms and available pricing. When both models have source-linked, verified results on a shared benchmark, those results are shown with their individual sources. The comparison is a starting point for evaluating your own workload.

Question 2

Which is cheaper: GPT-5.2 or GPT-5.2 Pro?

Accepted Answer

GPT-5.2 lists $1.75 input and $14.00 output per 1M tokens. GPT-5.2 Pro lists $21.00 input and $168.00 output. The cheaper workload depends on the mix of input and output. Long-context tiers, caching, batch processing and retries can change the bill.

Question 3

Which has the larger context window: GPT-5.2 or GPT-5.2 Pro?

Accepted Answer

Both records list a 400K-token context window. An equal limit does not imply equal recall, instruction following, or long-context quality.

Question 4

Which is faster: GPT-5.2 or GPT-5.2 Pro?

Accepted Answer

There is no matched speed measurement for both models with the same source, host, region and date. Test the same prompts at your expected concurrency and measure time to the first useful response as well as complete task time.

Question 5

What input and output types do GPT-5.2 and GPT-5.2 Pro support?

Accepted Answer

GPT-5.2 records text, image input and text output. GPT-5.2 Pro records text, image input and text output. “Not documented” means the current source record is incomplete; it does not prove that a modality is unsupported.

Question 6

Should I choose GPT-5.2 or GPT-5.2 Pro?

Accepted Answer

Consider GPT-5.2 if you need a lower listed input rate or a lower listed output rate. Test both on the same representative examples and judge the output against your acceptance criteria. Include tool failures, retries and the time to a completed task.
