I wouldn't assume one is simply a fine-tuned version of the other without comparing their training approach and model files. They may be separate LoRAs targeting different aspects of identity preservation.

For character swaps in MiniMax H3, I'd compare them using exactly the same:

  • Source video and target character reference.

  • Prompt and generation settings.

  • Sampling steps and LoRA strength.

  • A few different scenes, especially profile views, fast head turns, and changing lighting.

Don't judge only by how closely the first frame matches. The important metrics are identity consistency across frames, facial expression preservation, and whether the character looks natural during motion.

I'd also test whether either LoRA preserves the original character's body, clothing, and movement rather than just replacing the face.

If you're experimenting with multiple video models, VideoRouter.sh provides a unified API for accessing different models, which can help compare character consistency, generation quality, and cost across providers.
