Anker’s noise-blocking earbuds for sleeping are nearly half off

You might have a great bed and a good sleepy time routine, but if you’re still struggling to fall (or stay) asleep, Anker’s Soundcore Sleep A20 are worth considering. They’re designed to help muffle distracting sounds, and they’ve hit a new all-time low price of $99.99 ($80 off) at Best Buy and Target.

In his review, my colleague Thomas Ricker said this model helped him average nearly 30 more minutes of sleep each night over a two-week period compared to when he wore the AirPods Pro to sleep. My colleague Jennifer Pattison Tuohy had a similarly positive experience, saying that while she could still hear her husband’s snoring, it was muted enough to fade into the background rather than keep her awake. The Sleep A20 include multiple ear tips and wings so even side sleepers can comfortably wear them overnight.

Beyond blocking noise, they can play white noise, nature sounds, or meditation tracks, and can double as a pair of Bluetooth earbuds if you prefer falling asleep to podcasts or music. The companion app also tracks your sleep, including how long you’ve slept, your sleeping position, and nighttime movement, while extras like a built-in alarm let you wake up without disturbing your partner. 

Battery life is another highlight. The Sleep A20 can easily last through the night on a single charge (up to 14 hours) and their case recharges via USB-C. The newer $180 Sleep A30 feature active noise cancellation, which does a better job of masking unwanted sounds, but the feature sacrifices long-lasting battery life.

Three more deals worth a look

• The JBL Go 5 Portable Bluetooth Speaker is down to $44.95 ($10 off) at Amazon, which is its best prices to date. The tiny speaker features an IP68-rated design that can withstand dust and water, while delivering up to 10 hours of playback on a single charge. It also supports lossless audio when wired to your audio source over USB-C.
• It’s been hot out in many parts of the US. To cool off while you’re on the go, I recommend getting Jisulife’s Handheld Fan Life8, which is on sale for $12.32 ($14 off) at Amazon. The foldable USB-C-powered fan works as a handheld or a desktop fan thanks to its built-in stand. It can serve as a flashlight in a pinch or as a backup power bank for charging your phone when needed, though its small size means it’s only good for brief battery top-ups, not full charges.
• The Eero 6 Wi-Fi Router isn’t the company’s latest mesh router, but it’s still a solid pick for smaller homes, especially at its all-time low price of $54.99 ($30 off) at Amazon. The Wi-Fi 6 router covers up to 1,500 square feet, delivers speeds up to 900Mbps, and can handle more than 75 connected devices. It also doubles as a Zigbee smart home hub for compatible Alexa devices, so you can connect supported smart home devices without buying a separate hub.
