The differences
- Vgr V055 costs ₹179 less (₹699 against ₹878)
- Vgr V055 scores higher on the Ratelens Score (78 against 59)

Which one to buy
These are not really competing at the same price: Philips BT1232 costs ₹179 more than Vgr V055, 26% above it. The question is less which is better value and more whether Philips BT1232 does something you actually need.
Buyer ratings don't separate them. 4.1★ and 4.1★ are close enough to be noise, across 190,095 and 22,080 ratings. Neither product is carrying a reputation problem the other avoids.
Both products carry an MRP mismatch: the listings we track show different maximum retail prices for each of them. Since MRP is printed on the pack, at least one displayed figure per product does not match it, so the discount on either listing is calculated from a number we cannot verify. Compare the rupee prices above and disregard both percentages.
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.

Common questions
Is Philips BT1232 or Vgr V055 cheaper?
Vgr V055 is cheaper today by ₹179. Both are tracked daily, so this can change.
Are the discounts on these two products reliable?
At least one of them has platforms declaring different MRPs for the same item, so the percentage off is calculated from a figure that cannot be right on both. Compare the rupee prices above instead.
