Difference of quality of speech recognition

I'm thinking of using Azure's speech-to-text (in Portuguese), but I wonder if there is a difference in quality of recognition depending on the subscription plan.

For example, the sample on this page seems to be of high quality: https://azure.microsoft.com/pt-pt/services/cognitive-services/speech-to-text/#overview
But the sample on this page seems to be of low quality: https://github.com/Azure-Samples/cognitive-services-speech-sdk/blob/master/quickstart/javascript/browser/from-microphone/index.html
I tried the latter by entering my subscription key and region (and of course changed the languate 'en-US' to 'pt-PT') , but I had the impression that the quality is completely different. It doesn't show even the Portuguese accent marks in textarea.

I am currently on the free subscription plan.
Is there a difference in quality of recognition depending on the plan?

Thanks in advance

    @将之 山田 Thanks, there is no difference in quality recognition between free and standard price tiers.
    Also please try the recognition with Azure Speech CLI https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cognitive-services/speech-service/spx-overview and share the outcome.
