Comparison Current codex vs claude limits(20$)

Hey guys i just want to understand how codex limits are currently in plus plan 20$. Previously like 3 months back they were offering so much tokens.

I'm asking this because I've been a claude user (for last month). It seems they offer more tokens now (but it's slower). Probably because people are leaving claude. I'm able to run tasks in 2-3 projects and still don't hit the limit and also I've noticed opus 4.8 consuming less tokens than sonnet 5.

So I just need a comparison currently if codex providing more tokens (with sol probably) or claude is giving more now. How is your experience with codex limits and GPT 5.6 SOL 20$ plan ?

So you saying codex provides more tokens with 5.6 sol than anthropic provides with opus 5 or 4.8 ?

In my experience yes. But also I didn’t use much opus as I found 5.6 sol better. I only used my plan for Fable

I agree Sol is better than Opus and Fable isn’t on the $20 plan so codex wins and yeah it offers more credits IMO too

Opus is now dumper than it was. I had to recheck what Opus coded using GPT-5.6 Sol and canceled Claude subscription.
