"Este" and "Estos" are used for near objects, for example, something in your hand or in a place near to you (a table in front of you).
Example:
Tu: Tengo tos
Farmaceutico ¿Quieres "este" jarabe? (in the hand of the pharmacist)
"Ese" or "esos" are used for not to near and not to far, and "aquel" or "aquellos" are for far objects, for example, in a rack in the back wall.
