Bluetooth headset with mute button

[joker08]

I am looking for a bluetooth headset with a mute button. I am working from home and mostly use skype or teams for meetings.
I like to walk around during long meeting but have to run back to my laptop to mute/unmute.
Currently using a jbl t450 bt (doesnt have a mute button)
Was looking at this one but it's too damn expensive. Any suggestions, something may be around r1000 ?

iOS 14 allows you to customizes the force sensor to do whatever you like.. noise cancellation, Siri to mute a call, etc works for me

can you install anything on your pc/phone or is it locked down completely? (besides for teams/zoom etc)

The laptop connects to the organizations VPN, I have admin rights on the laptop, so I can install anything on the laptop. but I cant use the login credentials for skype or teams to login from my phone.

Jabra has a few headsets with a mute button. Mine also mutes when you move the mic arm up.
