Can anyone recommend a good headset to use with an iPhone?

I've been using my AirPods (which work great but the battery life sucks) and now I'm ready to move on to something better.

So far these have been the top ones I've found recommended for iPhone doing searches on line:

Ideally, I'd like to have two headphones, i.e. one over each ear (I know its not stereo but I prefer sound on both sides of my head)
bluetooth/wireless is a plus but if I have to have a cord to my phone I can live with that
noise cancelling is also a plus
ability to increase volume on both microphone and earpieces
and a battery life that lasts longer than an hour.

Anyone already using something they would recommend?

My wife uses this Jabra, and really likes it. It works great with her iPhone SE.

It also works really well with a PC, using its own dongle that a) gives 100 foot range and b) bypasses Windows horrid Bluetooth implementation.

Thanks for the recommendation. I hadn't considered this Jabra but the price seems right!

Does anyone else out there use a headset they would recommend?
