If you want something that will connect to both phone and pc at the same time, you'll need multi pairing, and these are not as easy to find as you might think.

I have tried quite a few different types over the last year, at different price ranges, but so far, these

Sennheiser CX150BT are the most comfortable, the most reliable connection, good sound, good mic and a decent 10 hour battery life.

Linked to Currys website, but if you shop around you'll get them cheaper.

If you can stretch the budget a tiny bit I'd highly recommend Plantronics Voyager - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Plantronics-Bluetooth-Headset-Voyager-Legend-black/dp/B08F2T5CJ8/ref=sr_1_6?crid=2W78Z8NQNQ5S4&dchild=1&keywords=bluetooth+headset+plantronics&qid=1622058138&s=electronics&sprefix=Bluetooth+hesdset+%2Celectronics%2C204&sr=1-6 - It has an 8 hour battery, dual connections so can connect to both PC and phone at the same time but most importantly it has noise cancellation. I would never have thought of this for a headset but it's fantastic. I've been in meetings while out playing football with the kids last summer, cycling my bike when I forgot about a meeting and had to call in, sitting in coffee shops and nobody heard a thing other than my voice

Watch a few YouTube videos on this model and you will see what I mean. Hope it's not too late!!!
