Three Amazon deals stood out in CNET's daily deals roundup published Tuesday evening, and the steepest cut belongs to a pair of noise-canceling earbuds that will not stay this cheap for long.

The JLab Go Air Pop Plus earbuds are down to $16, a 47% discount, but CNET says the price holds only through Tuesday night. The earbuds pack 10mm drivers that JLab claims are 40% larger than what competitors typically use, plus active noise cancellation aimed at people who need quiet for work or study. Battery life runs past seven hours on the buds themselves, and the charging case stretches that to roughly 24 hours total. A 10-minute top-off in the case adds about an hour of playtime, useful if you forgot to charge overnight. A Dual Connect feature lets you pair one earbud or both at once, handy for calls and meetings where you only need audio in one ear.

Anker's Solix S2000 power station is the pricier find on CNET's list, now listed at $650, a $549 cut from its regular price. The S2000 launched earlier this summer and is built as whole-home backup power, with a peak output of 3,000 watts that Anker says can run larger appliances like refrigerators and microwaves during an outage. CNET notes it's about 30% smaller and 25% lighter than most other 2,000-watt-hour power stations on the market, which matters if floor space in a garage or closet is tight. Anker also claims lower idle power draw, meaning less frequent recharging when the unit sits unused, and rates the S2000 for a 15-year lifespan.

The Insta360 X5 action camera rounds out the list at $465, down $85 from its usual price, a 15% discount per CNET's tracking. The X5 shoots at up to 8K resolution and is rated for underwater use, with replaceable lenses if one gets scratched or damaged. Battery life tops out around three hours per charge. Insta360 built in an invisible selfie stick mode, which erases the stick from 360-degree footage so the shot looks handheld from a floating angle, and the camera is also pitched as a stronger low-light performer for night video.

None of these prices come with a guaranteed end date beyond what CNET reported when it published the roundup Tuesday at 7:29 p.m. ET. Amazon's deal pages tend to move daily, and discounts like the JLab earbuds are explicitly framed as same-day only. Shoppers weighing the Anker power station or the Insta360 camera should expect those prices to shift too, since neither was listed as a flash sale, but Amazon doesn't publish fixed expiration windows for most of its markdowns.

CNET's deals team says it checks Amazon's listings daily, so Tuesday's prices could already look different by the time Wednesday's roundup goes up.
