That's how you mute the microphone, by the way: two taps on the right ear cup.

And you definitely won't know they change function depending on whether you're connected via Bluetooth or USB dongle without looking.

I don't say this lightly-I'm usually a rip-open-the-packaging-and-start-using-the-product kind of guy-but you might never know there are touch controls on the metallic plates on the outside of the headset if you don't read the manual thoroughly, for example.

There's just so much to it and you might genuinely miss something or not know how to get the most out of it without the guide. Talk of the broad feature set does bring me onto something important: the Beoplay Portal is the first headset I've reviewed where I really recommend reading the user guide before using it. All in, the ANC on the Portal is really impressive, and this added functionality just builds on that. Largely I tend to keep ANC activated without listening out for other sounds, but it does give you that little bit more flexibility if you're listening out for a parcel to be delivered, as I have a few times. It's so convenient to use one headset across all your devices.īoth features are impressive, too.
Which mode is active depends on whether the microphone is in use. Transparency mode and Own Voice are both controlled via a swipe-action touch slider on the left-hand ear cup.
Transparency mode means you can still hear the doorbell go while you're using ANC, to give a real-world example. Transparency mode feeds you back some of the sound from your surroundings back to you while blocking out repetitive noises. Own Voice feeds your own voice back through the device while your microphone is in use, while gaming and chatting over Discord for example. The flip side to this noise-blocking functionality are the features Own Voice and Transparency mode. Generally, I'd say there's a great mix of response through the range with the Portal cans, just with a little more focus on the mid to high-end side rather than the lowest lows. You can unlock a little more kick on the low-end by cranking the headphones up to a pretty excessive volume, but when you do that it becomes a lot spikier in the mids and highs. There is a decent bass response here across some of the lower range, but not the depths of bass I really want for electronic music or similar. If you want a punchy bass line to shine you'll probably want to look elsewhere, however. The Portal performs at its best with midrange and high tones, and those are the most defined and immediately noticeable qualities when you put some high-quality audio through the drivers.
