You can get books on your Kindle reader by buying directly from Amazon's store, but if you have EPUB files (such as from Project Gutenberg) you have the ability to read them directly on your Kindle. This was once a somewhat tricky procedure, relatively speaking, but has gotten increasingly easier over time. Here, we discuss your primary options in getting your files delivered to your Kindle.
MacOS, Windows, or portable device
So, grab your free e-book and let's go. These steps will get EPUB (and other types of files) over onto your Kindle from your computer, laptop, or other internet-connected device.
Of course, there are some caveats. Mainly, those EPUB files need to be free of digital rights management (DRM), so files bought from other stores that have been protected aren't readable on Kindle. However, plenty of DRM-free EPUB books are available.
Kindle has an easy method for adding third-party texts to your Kindle via its Send to Kindle service.
Step 1: Head to the Amazon's Send to Kindle page. Make sure you are logged into the account associated with your Kindle.
Step 2: Select your files (max 200 MB) and either drag them to the File Upload area or select them using the 'Select files from device' button. In addition to EPUB, you can use PDF, DOC, DOCX, TXT, RTF, HTM, HTML, PNG, GIF, JPG, JPEG, and BMP.
Step 3: Once the file is uploaded, add it to your library (for all connected devices) by leaving the 'Add to your library' tab on. Turn off to select which devices to send the file to.
Step 4: Once you have finished your selections, tap 'Send'. After a few minutes, you can locate the new file in your Kindle's library.
Another way to send an EPUB to your Kindle is to just directly email the file to your Kindle. Here's how to get your Kindle's email address and send the file.
Step 1: First, you'll need to get your Kindle's email address. Each Kindle has a specific email address just for it. Head to the Content and Devices page on your Amazon account.
Step 2: Select the Devices subhead and select the device you want to send your file to. Be aware that you might have to click the device twice to view its information.
Step 3: After you can see the data, you'll see that your Kindle has an email address attached to it. You can also change it to something more memorable, if you like.
Step 4: Open your email client of choice, start a new email, paste in your Kindle's email address, and include your EPUB file as an attachment.
Step 5: You should receive the file in a few minutes or so if the Kindle is successfully connected to Wi-Fi or mobile internet. You'll also receive a receipt to your email address if the process has been successful.
Unfortunately, you can't send EPUB files through a USB cable. It seems this method is still subject to the same restrictions, so you'll need to convert your EPUB file into another format before you can send it over.
Not long ago, Apple treated independent repair like an act of outright hostility. The Cupertino giant locked down parts with serial-number pairing, while repair tools remained firmly out of reach of anyone outside its authorized repair network. More importantly, the company waged a legal and lobbying battle against right-to-repair legislation.
I've covered enough of these fights over the years to know what a shift looks like. That's why what happened in October 2026 genuinely caught me off guard. The day the iPhone Duo went on sale, what may be the most mechanically complex iPhone to date, Apple pulled off a surprising about-face. It published teardown-style repair manuals for a handful of major components.
Apple's first foldable phone is now on shelves, in short supply, but with an unreal amount of buzz around it. After all, it's the first foldable iPhone, and there's plenty that this phone gets right. But there's also a lot that is either broken or underwhelming. What's peculiar is the dialogue around this phone, and how it has completely overshadowed every other attempt at making a phone with a similar form factor.
I've spent some time with the iPhone Duo, and I've used the Galaxy Z Fold 8 for almost three months now. In my opinion, Samsung deserves more credit. When the Galaxy Z Fold 8 arrived earlier this year, it was celebrated in some circles and ridiculed in others for supposedly copying what Apple would eventually deliver with the iPhone Duo. The dialogue was pretty odd, for multiple reasons. Samsung has been making foldable phones for years, so claiming that it copied a product Apple hadn't even launched was simply absurd.
For years, Samsung’s Galaxy A phones have been some of the easiest recommendations for anyone who wants to go the Android route without paying flagship prices. But that part of the lineup could soon become harder to find at a good price.
According to South Korea’s Electronic Times, Samsung is cutting Galaxy A production by about 20% in the fourth quarter compared to its original plans. Component orders have reportedly dropped by a similar amount, which could mean roughly 10 million fewer phones over the year. Samsung is also said to be considering another production cut of more than 10% next year.
