I personally use two pairs that satisfy most of your criteria:
I had a similar approach about headphones as you had - I only planned to use them for work, specifically Teams meetings in a loud office. But XM5s have such great ANC and sound quality that I now commute and travel with them.
For gaming, I'm using HyperX Cloud Alpha Wireless. They have an unbelievable 300 hours battery life and decent passive noise canceling, though no ANC. They're using a proprietary wireless connection, making them fit for gaming without noticeable lags (Bluetooth sucks in this regard, I can't play with 300 ms audio delay). Not sure if you can connect them to a phone.
