Our Verdict

Beats Solo Pro Wireless

Bang & Olufsen Beoplay Portal

Depending on your listening habits, you may prefer either the Beats Solo Pro or the Bang & Olufsen Beoplay Portal. The Beats have a more stable fit, a more neutral sound profile out of the box, and a better noise isolation performance. Their continuous battery life is also longer. However, some users may prefer the gaming-oriented design of the Bang & Olufsen, which are more comfortable and have a better microphone performance. They're more customizable thanks to their graphic EQ and presets, and you can use them with Xbox and PlayStation consoles.
