Selfie camera rating

Do you like taking selfies?

Please note: the DxOmark website, with a laboratory and a very large authority in the field of photography, updated its ratings, distributed scores - and crowned the smartphones with the best selfie camera.

In first place - the selfie camera of the iPhone 14 Pro.

In second place - Huawei P50 Pro and in third place - the camera of Google's Pixel 7 Pro, which was launched last week.

And where is Samsung?

The company's new flagship device, the Galaxy S22 Ultra, was ranked 11th - far from the company's flagship device from two years ago, the Galaxy S20 Ultra, which was ranked 7th.

The commercials are coming to Netflix

The streaming giant will launch the discounted ad-supported subscription on November 3.

Where is the catch?

The new program will include between four and five minutes of commercials per hour, with a length of 15 or 30 seconds per commercial.

In addition, the company stated that "a limited number of movies and TV shows will not be available".

Another compromise can be found in the viewing quality - only 720p (HD and not Full HD).

In the meantime, the route, which will cost $6.99 (about NIS 25), will not be available to customers in Israel.

In addition, the company announced that it will begin charging users an additional monthly amount for use in households that are not the subscriber's primary home, as early as early 2023. This is an expansion of an experimental program that has been conducted so far only in Latin America, where Netflix already charges an additional fee for using a subscription outside the location defined as home The user's main.

In fact, any profile of "who watches" who does not live in the same house as you, will be charged.

A partial solar eclipse in Israel

Write in your diaries: next week - a spectacular astronomical event in Israel.

On Tuesday, October 25, a partial solar eclipse will occur in Israel - about a third of the sun's surface will be covered by the moon.

In the center of the country, the eclipse will begin at 12:58, reach its peak at 14:11 and end at 15:21.

It is important to remember: under no circumstances should you directly observe the eclipse through a telescope or binoculars to avoid the risk of blindness or irreversible eye damage.

If you miss the current eclipse, you should know that the next eclipse will occur in August 2027.
