The Fitbit Inspire HR is currently the top pick in our guide to the best fitness trackers. While it lacks some of the more advanced features of the other discounted trackers, we like it for providing a light and waterproof design, (relatively) accurate sleep and exercise tracking, a useful touchscreen, and a solid five-day battery life at an affordable price. If you don't need to go super in-depth with your activity tracking, it's still a worthwhile choice.
That said, stepping up to the recently released Charge 4 does add useful features such as a built-in GPS (instead of relying on a connected phone, a la the Inspire HR), Spotify and contactless payment support, and an active minutes tracker. We haven't reviewed the device on the site, but feedback around the Web has generally been positive, and we previously reviewed the Charge 3 favorably. The Versa Lite, meanwhile, is closer to the Inspire HR in functionality (with slightly less battery life), but it might work better if you prefer a bigger color touchscreen in a smartwatch form factor.
UK, US, and Canada attribute attacks to group “almost certainly” working for Moscow.

Hackers backed by the Russian state are targeting pharmaceutical companies and academic institutions in the UK, US, and Canada that are working on potential COVID-19 vaccines, British intelligence officials have warned.
The UK’s National Cyber Security Centre, working with Canada’s Communications Security Establishment, attributed the attacks to hacking group APT29, also known as “Cozy Bear,” which it alleged was “almost certainly” working for Russian intelligence services. The findings have been endorsed by the US National Security Agency.
Dominic Raab, UK foreign secretary, said it is “completely unacceptable that the Russian intelligence services are targeting those working to combat the coronavirus pandemic."

90GB package is a drop in the bucket compared to the game’s cloud-streamed data.

European players who want to play Microsoft's upcoming Flight Simulator reboot next month will be able to buy a physical edition of the game that is spread across a massive ten dual-layered DVDs. The retail package comes courtesy of the simulation add-on specialists at Aerosoft, which announced the publishing partnership with Microsoft and developer Asobo earlier this week.
That physical package, which Aerosoft says should cost "very close to the price you pay Microsoft [for the digital edition]" will include over 90GB of data, the bulk of which are graphical assets for the airplanes and detailed ground scenery in the game. After installing the game from those discs, players will still be encouraged to download update files to the simulation itself, as well as stream copious cloud-based data like high-res satellite photos, geographic details, and live weather updates for an even higher level of realism.
"This is very much a simulator that depends on the cloud if you want to use it to its full potential," Aerosoft community manager Mathijs Kok wrote in a forum thread discussing the physical edition. "If you use the sim offline you get a world that looks a lot better than [Prepar3d] or X-Plane, but you will miss the full high-def coverage of the world with a photo base and all that goes with it (correctly placed trees, etc.)," he added later.
