As the world of video streaming continues to grow, the rise of free streaming services has become one of the most significant trends to watch. Netflix was once the gold standard of streaming, eventually drawing competition from more recent, big-ticket entries in the space like HBO Max and Disney Plus. But all of those come at a cost, and with folks watching their monthly spending, it’s worth asking whether you can satisfy your streaming needs without paying for it.

The elephant in the room here, of course, is that people have been quite vocally looking for Netflix alternatives as the legacy streamer cracks down on account sharing. This on top of subscription fee hikes that have made the service quite pricey.

The best Boost Mobile deals: Get a free Galaxy A23 5G when you switch https://ift.tt/k9Cjhim

Boost Mobile switch button

If you want to switch to a contract-free prepaid carrier in the US, Boost Mobile is one of the best options around. It has a wide range of premium and affordable smartphones available and provides many deals on devices and plans. The Sprint and T-Mobile merger has resulted in one major change for the best Boost Mobile deals — the MVNO is now part of Dish Network.

In other words, Boost is going to be around for a while. We still highly recommend the carrier and feel that now is a great time to sign up, as there are plenty of solid deals to be had this month. For example, over on Tech Deals, you can save 49% on the 5GB Boost Mobile plan.

  • OnePlus released the stable version of Oxygen OS 13 back in September 2022.
  • Currently, only some OnePlus 10 Pro owners are on Oxygen OS 13.
  • Owners in North America are still waiting for the update.

OnePlus isn’t exactly known for its smooth update rollouts. But owners of the OnePlus 10 Pro hoped that wouldn’t be the case for the Android 13 update. Unfortunately, the situation appears to be way messier than expected as the update has yet to reach all OnePlus 10 Pro devices.

On the OnePlus Community page, a user who goes by Bobbie63 posted a thread to ask some questions about what’s going on with updates on the OnePlus 10 Pro. In the thread, the user lays out a timeline for all the updates released since the first open beta of Oxygen OS 13 (OOS 13) — OnePlus’s version of Android 13.
