Size 15. In the first week I managed to get a full week before having to recharge from 10%. I looked online and Samsung recommends recharging it when it gets to 20-30% to preserve the battery life. In the second week, started wearing my Galaxy Watch6 Classic again, because I read that it offsets sensors to the Watch, meaning the battery lasts even longer... and a week on (today) the ring was at 31% when I recharged it fully again, so a difference of over 20% in combination with the Watch. By the way I do not wear my Watch to bed, so it is only the Ring doing the sleep tracking (which is hit or miss tbh) it stops tracking for an hour or two in the night, which is really annoying. I had the same thing with the Watch, and I found it uncomfortable to have on in bed. I have been reading that the battery can start to go bad even after the first week so I am glad it isn't affecting me (yet). -

Visual Studio gets even smarter with more AI models and billing updates by Usama Jawad Visual Studio and Visual Studio Code are among the most popular integrated development environments (IDEs) out there. The tools boast more than 50 million monthly active users, which isn't surprising considering their platform agnosticism, deep integration with the Microsoft ecosystem, and the power of GitHub Copilot. Now, Microsoft is looking to entice even more customers who are eager to use AI models to boost their productivity during the development process. In a blog post, Microsoft has stated that it has updated the AI models list available in Visual Studio to default to smarter options. For example, Copilot will now use GPT-4.1 rather than GPT-4o, since it offers better responses with faster performance. In addition, users can now select between the following models to enhance their coding experience based on their preferences: Claude Sonnet 4 Claude Opus 4 Claude Sonnet 3.5 Claude 3.7 (non-thinking and thinking) OpenAI o3 mini Gemini 2.0 Flash Gemini 2.5 Pro Microsoft has noted that your selected model will persist across your workflows, so if you're unsure about which model to leverage, you can refer to its documentation here. Furthermore, Visual Studio is making it easier to switch between models that are included in your plan through a prompt in the model selector. When it comes to billing updates, Microsoft has built a new Copilot Consumptions user experience that can be accessed by navigating to the Copilot badge present in the top-right corner of the IDE. As the name suggests, this panel shows your consumption in an easily digestible format. You can also click on Manage Plan, which will take you to the GitHub website. It is important to note that some models are request-heavy, and Visual Studio will now indicate this to you while you are selecting your model. If you exhaust your premium requests, you will shift to a standard model seamlessly. You should also keep in mind that the GitHub Copilot pricing plans have been updated, and the billing experience in Visual Studio does reflect them. -

Last I checked, their "support clock" runs for five years. So EOL at end of 2028 for this model? Roll your own looks better all the time. I do understand that's not for everyone. I think the least they could do is offer you six months of free cloud so you could migrate to new hardware when the time comes. Assuming you stick with them as your hardware vendor, of course. -
