The constant increase in teleworking, which enables work models such as the digital nomad, has made technology aim, more and more, to the business market. One of those brands that is betting on this segment is the Danish firm, bang&Olufsenwhich has launched a range of headphones, especially aimed at teleworkers. From MuyPymes we have had the opportunity to test the models, Beocom Portal and Beocom EX.
Headband headphones, Beocom Portal
Although 100% teleworking had not come to stay, what nobody doubts is the consolidation of the video conferencing and online meetings. Gone are the majority of trips to see a client or to agree something with your team. To carry out these calls successfully, the firm bang & Olufsen proposes incredible headband headphones that are characterized by being soft to the touch and light on the head.
In fact, this model does not sacrifice the design, the high quality of the materials and the craftsmanship that characterize the brand. The corporate universe will enjoy the same sound and aesthetic experience as luxury consumers who are used to buying the firm’s pieces.
The Beocom Portal has a connection Bluetooth, USB port, 3.5 jack and dongle connection, although we always prefer the first one, since it is much more comfortable and faster. The union of headphones and PC is very efficient and provides a high and clear sound quality, in any circumstance.
Another of the things that we liked the most is that, despite its robust design, the pads are light and very comfortable, and the fabric is breathable, so your ears do not sweat from prolonged use. It is ideal, both for video conferences and for listening to music or watching a video and isolating yourself from the environment, thanks to its advanced noise cancellation and surround sound. Something that has caught our attention is that it has a direct button for Zoom from one of the headphones, speeding up the input and use of this platform.

Also, a few days ago, a major software update for the Beocom EX (in-ear) was released.which greatly improves the issue of connectivity and other important functions.
