Amazon Kindle Unlimited Free Trial: How to sign up without paying a dime

Add as a preferred source on Google

Searching for an Amazon Kindle Unlimited free trial? Stick with us and in no time you’ll be enjoying a two-month subscription without handing over a dime. You’ll even receive a notification when it’s about to come to an end so you can nip it in the bud before it switches over to a paid membership.

Think of Amazon Kindle Unlimited as the Amazon Prime Video (or Netflix) of the book world. The service offers unrestricted access to more than a million must-read titles, as well as a selection of popular magazines and audiobooks that come bundled with the subscription for free — no hidden charges.

Signing up for the Kindle Unlimited free trial couldn’t be easier. Just head over the website — or click the button above — and follow the on-screen instructions to create an Amazon account. Already have one? Simply click ‘”Join Kindle Unlimited”. You’re now enrolled for two months — for free.

 

Of course, there are some caveats. First, the two-month trial offer is only valid for customers who subscribe before midnight on June 30. Second, former Kindle Unlimited subscribers are not eligible for the taster: They’ll need to hand over the usual $10 per month if they want to use it again.

Not sure where to start? Your best bet is to head over to the Amazon Kindle Unlimited Store, which isn’t a store at all because everything is free. What it is, however, is a catalog of everything that can be accessed through the subscription at no charge, organized by genre and what’s trending.

But Opera's latest numbers suggest that changing, and the company is riding a nice wave of growth.

In a blog post, Opera shared that the combined monthly active users of its Android and iOS browsers grew 66% in the UK and 40% in the US year over year during the second quarter. That’s a big jump in two of the most competitive markets out there.

It’s hot out there, but please stop putting your warm phones in the fridge
That viral trick of putting your phone in the fridge is a bad idea

Every summer, social media rediscovers the same "life hack": if your phone gets too hot, stick it in the fridge for a few minutes. It sounds logical. Refrigerators are cold. Phones are hot. Problem solved. Except it isn't. Repair technicians, smartphone manufacturers, and safety experts all agree this is one of the worst things you can do to an overheating phone. While the trick might cool the exterior temporarily, it can quietly create a much bigger problem inside the device - one that could permanently damage components or shorten the life of its battery.

According to a new BBC report, the latest warning comes from a UK phone repair shop, but it's one experts have been repeating for years.
