Which one to buy
Philips QP1624 is the cheaper of the two, but only by ₹20, around 1%, which is inside the range either price can move in a week. Treat them as the same price bracket and choose on specification.
The ratings pull against the price here. Vgr V228 is the more expensive of the two yet scores 4.2★ to 4.0★, so the premium is buying something buyers evidently notice. Whether it is worth ₹20 depends on how much that difference matters to you.
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 ₹1,379 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.
