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

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.

This new Belkin accessory transforms your iPhone into a digital camera
The Belkin Stage PowerGrip attached to an iPhone.

The iPhone has a powerful camera built-in, but what if you could turn it into a proper digital camera that can keep you snapping Ansel Adams-worthy pictures all day long? Belkin's newest accessory promises to do just that, and we really hope it works. The Stage Power Grip is a more ergonomically designed accessory that helps you take great shots while reducing shake, and it's just been announced at CES 2025.

Belkin hopes to release the Stage Power Grip sometime in May, but that date isn't set in stone (nor is the price). It functions as both a button to take pictures and a grip to help you keep a steady hand. It attaches to your iPhone via MagSafe and includes a 10,000mAh power bank, too. There's also a built-in USB-C cable for charging other devices (as well as your iPhone, if needed).

One of the worst smart rings we reviewed in 2024 is getting a successor
Circular Ring 2 in Gold.

In the world of wearables, it seems that smart rings have reached peak popularity in the last couple of years. Though the Oura Ring is still the gold standard, that’s not stopping competitors like Circular, which just announced its next-generation Circular Ring 2 at CES 2025.

In 2024, our own Andy Boxall reviewed the original Circular Ring Slim, as well as a revised version that came out several months later. However, he wasn’t very impressed with the Circular Ring Slim, as it had several flaws and only got a 1.5/5 rating. Circular clearly had its work cut out for it, and thankfully, the Circular Ring 2 sounds like an improvement.

This crazy smart mirror will tell you who’s the healthiest of them all
The Withings Omnia smart mirror concept.

Withings’ futuristic Omnia mirror will tell you everything you need to know about your health and well-being, and probably some things you'd rather ignore right after the recent festive period, just by standing in front of it. It is aimed at cleverly bringing together its own data with information collected from Withings’ range of connected health devices, such as the Withings ScanWatch 2 smartwatch, to provide what it calls a “360-degree view of your vital indicators.”

Omnia collates an impressive 60 different health and fitness parameters, with the 360-degree part of the explanation coming from scans performed by the connected base, other Withings products, and information collected from other sources. Data ranges from your body composition and weight to sleep quality and lung capacity, and it’s all presented on the mirror itself — right in front of you.
