Netflix introduces free tier, but you probably can’t sign up for it
Unless you live in Kenya, at least for now
Netflix knows how to adapt to local markets, whether by offering series and movies specific to the country or by marketing plans that are more in line with the regional needs.

They’re one of the best value for money when it comes to wireless buds

Bose steps up to Sony with improved QuietComfort 45 ANC headphones

Then came the Sony WH-1000XM3 and WH-1000XM4, which were considered by many to be superior, and inevitably dethroned Bose when it came to ANC headphones. Bose did release a newer product, the NC 700, which haven't been nearly as popular as the QC35. This is probably due to their lack of convenience, as they can't be folded, but also their relatively high price.

We should be expecting new a new Nest Cam and a Doorbell soon
