Is there a significant difference between Claude Code in VSCode and Copilot in VSCode? I’ve been using Copilot with the Claude models (including Sonnet/Opus 4.6) and it seems to work spectacularly.
My subscription is only $10 a month, and it has unlimited inline suggestions. I just wonder if I’m missing anything.
I tried copilot for a bit in vscode as well with opus and felt something was off. Somehow as if copilots harness around it just wasn’t as good. But I can’t give solid prove.

Most models are limited to 200k context in GitHub Copilot. The Claude models are now 1M context elsewhere.
The $10/month plan offers a quite limited number of tokens for advanced models. And if you are not careful and set the model to Auto it will quickly deplete them.
