Preferably a pair which has 15+ hours music life, and that I can charge them up while still using them, Budget of about 30 pounds.

Can anybody recommend preferably from Amazon, as I have prime so can get next day

Define "wireless headphones".

Do you mean Bluetooth types that you can use with a portable music player of some sort?
Or the type with a separate base station transmitter that plugs into an audio out of a TV or stereo system?

The Bluetooth type I can use with my ipad, I have come across a pair, on amazon, which would suit me the RRP is 80 quid, but they are selling them for 24 quid, they are Dylan Sport if anybody is familiar

It depends on how critical you are regarding the sound produced by the headphones. If you are expecting a true hi-fi sound from Bluetooth headphones costing £24 I think you will be disappointed. It pays to go and listen to some different models at a shop before you commit to buying, i have had a lot of different makes but the true hi--fi sounding ones are expensive.

Often I mainly use it for a bit of Talksport or Radio 5 Live or watching a bit of Catch up TV

Im housebound, use my ipad most of the day, listen to the radio mainly.

What I ideally want is a pair of headphones that can give me around 15 plus hours charge, or a shorter amount, if I can get a pair of bluetooth wireless headphones, which I can charge up, while using them, if so Im not so worried about how many hours charge I get from them.

Could go to about 40 quid, looking to buy tommorrow

Look at the Sony ones on Amazon they are quite good. Some on there for about £50 if you could stretch to that. Good sound quality and reliable.

Thanks for that don't really want anything heavy on my head, was looking at some Motorola ones, that have a neck band, and magnetic clips for the headphomes
