Hi, this is my first post, so please be gentle 
Id like to buy a pair of on ear headphones - bluetooth, but also have the ability to plug a 3.5mm cable into them, so i can use them for my pc when they have no charge (or on my phone if im unable to charger the headset).
This will be my first pair of this type of headset, so i dont want to spend too much, a cheap first step will suit me fine, and help.me decide if id use them as much as i anticipate, and then maybe look at buying a more respectable pair.
I know you get what you pay for very much, but like i say, this is my first initial step into this area.
Any discounted sets or relevant information would be greatly helpful and appreciated,
Thanks if you can offer me any constructive advice?

These appear to have such a thing (albeit with a 2.5mm socket on the headphones):

It also says it comes with a 2.5mm to 3.5mm jack plug.0 -
Perfect spec wise, but more than id hope to be looking at for my first purchase, id hate to spend that much and then realise id not use them, where as id not worry as much about a 20/30 pair.0

Hi, I've got a pair of these. They are Bluetooth but also work with a cable if you don't turn them on. The battery life is pretty good, my only criticism is that the cover on the charging port is a very snug fit and a PITA to open. But for the money I've been really impressed with these.
