Which one to buy
These are not really competing at the same price: Philips BT1230 costs ₹256 more than Vgr V071, 37% above it. The question is less which is better value and more whether Philips BT1230 does something you actually need.
The ratings point the same way as the price: Vgr V071 is both cheaper and better rated, at 4.2★ from 7,355 ratings against 3.9★. When the cheaper product is also the better-reviewed one there is not much left to weigh up.
One caveat that only shows up across platforms: Vgr V071 carries an MRP mismatch, meaning its listings show different maximum retail prices, while Philips BT1230 does not. That does not tell us which listing is wrong, or why, but it does mean the discount percentage on Vgr V071 is calculated from an MRP that differs between listings.
The ₹699 figure is on Amazon, and is the lowest we observed across every listing we track for it. Prices on both products move often enough that it is worth opening each listing before deciding.
