JVC HA-S31M-A and JVC HA-S31BT - Product price

As expected the JVC HA-S31M is the cheaper one with a price tag of around £20. The more expensive HA-S31BT will cost you some £10 more.

Whether you will pick the cable or the Bluetooth version of these JVC headphones you will definitely make a good deal considering the prices mentioned.

As far as the sound quality, you should expect decent sound but far from the best-in-class performance. That is quite expected, these are nice looking budget on-ear headphones after all.
