Hey all

im after a new set of gaming headphones with very specific features

 

at the moment im working from home, and will be for the forseable future,

because of this I have to have two phone lines (Softphone on PC and mobile) which I switch headsets to use

Im after a headset which is both bluetooth and wireless (USB) so I dont have to switch when switching phones

 

BUT

I also want a way I can turn the bluetooth off on the headset its self, so when I get calls outside of regular hours (dual sim phone with personal and work sim) i can just take it on the phone as normal

I cant turn bluetooth off on the phone as I use it for my fitbit,

 

Also id like it to have a decent mic as id also like to use it for podcast recording, game streaming, etc.

Any ideas on a good headset which meets these requirements? 
(hopefully at a good price point as well)

thanks in advance

Don't think anything like this exists. 

There are many headsets which will take both wireless and wired though.

 

You might also be able to route the phone's audio through the PC and mix appropriately with something like Voicemeeter.

Well yeah it's obviously fast to come up with something that doesn't meet the requirements, there's virtually an infinity of those :P

Iv found a few which do both bluetooth and wireless 

EG 
SteelSeries Arctis Pro Wireless Gaming Headset
or
Sennheiser GSP 670

But neither have enough detail about how the bluetooth / RF works 
EG if you take a call does it turn off the PC audio, or play both, 
And if you can disable bluetooth without disabling RF

(Plus both  quite costly, but willing to save if it does what im after)
