Aside from design and display, what sets the Max apart from the other Instant Pots is its capability to reach higher pressure levels. It can reach 15 psi on max pressure mode that allows you to do even pressure canning. And with a full temperature spectrum, it has virtually unlimited cooking functions, including fermentation, simmer, slow cook, sear, and boil. From creating stews and soups to gourmet-style dishes, the Instant Pot Max can cook a wide range of meals.

The Instant Pot Max also comes with a NutriBoost technology which adds movements or a boiling motion to the food during pressure cooking. This sort of auto-stirring function breaks down cells to ensure maximum extraction of flavor, resulting in enhanced food taste and texture.

Outfitted with a large touchscreen and a dial, the Max is one of the most user-friendly Instant Pots. It has dedicated buttons and controls for seamless programming and adjustment of settings, such as time, temperature, altitude, and pressure level.

It typically sells for $200, but Amazon’s 25% price cut makes it available for only $150. Don’t miss the chance to score a premium Instant Pot at a $50 discount.

Capture all the action with the GoPro HERO12 Black — $150 off today at Amazon
The GoPro Hero 12 Black Creator Edition set up on a small tripod on the beach.

In the moment, when you're blasting over that jump on your dirt bike, catching that killer wave, or jumping off of whatever insane cliff you've found, you don't necessarily think about capturing it all. But one of the best ways to make that happen is to strap on an action cam, like a GoPro. You can capture all of the action, and it's relatively low-lift. You wear whatever unique mount is best for the situation and the camera does all the work. There's just one issue, action cameras can be expensive especially if you're on a budget. However, today, Amazon has the GoPro HERO12 Black for $150 off. That brings it down from its normal price of $400 to $250. You can use that extra money to grab an accessory and you're good to go. GoPro HERO12 Black captures it all in 5.3K or 4K so you can rewatch the glory over and over.

 
Why buy the GoPro HERO12 Black? To capture the action, that's why
An action camera like a GoPro makes it possible to capture the action, in full detail, no matter what you're doing. You don't even have to be doing crazy stunts either. A common misconception is that they're only useful for outdoor activities, but no they work for filming just about anything. Even if you're having a barbecue, or a birthday party, or want to see what your roaming cat sees throughout the day -- a GoPro is what you need.

Post Cyber Monday savings: Take $50 off the JBL Tour Pro 3 at Best Buy
JBL Tour Pro 3 and Tour Pro 2 earbuds.

We here at Digital Trends have been covering noise-cancelling earbuds and headphones for years on end, and it’s an exciting field to stay on top of. Audio companies are all about ingenuity, and it’s been a thrill to watch in-ear and over-ear tech evolve so much, even in just the last year or so! Not long ago, we were able to test the JBL Tour Pro 3 Noise-Cancelling Earbuds, and AV expert Simon Cohen had the following to say: “For those who want it all, the JBL Tour Pro 3 have an unbeatable set of features.” Today, when you purchase the JBL Tour Pro 3 through Amazon, Best Buy, or Walmart, you’ll only pay $250. At full price, these earbuds go for $300.

Why you should buy the JBL Tour Pro 3
We loved taking the JBL Tour Pro 2 earbuds for a test drive, and we had an even better experience with the Tour Pro 3. The dual-driver design helps to achieve a greater balance between highs, mids, and lows without overpowering any part of the mix you’re listening to. Throw in strong ANC, support for hi-res codecs (LDAC and LC3plus), optional wired listening, and an IP55 rating, and it becomes clear why we gave the Tour Pro 3 buds a solid 4 out of 5 stars.
