Short answer: a tie on sound quality. Both are rated 4.3/5 (#198 and #184 of 1291 in-ear headphones) at nearly the same price ($59.99 vs $55.99), so choose on features and fit.
Why pick the EPZ G20 Pro: The median of 3 hobbyist measurements gives it a very good Harman preference score of 78 with a 1.68 dB spread, and its mids sit within about 0.6 dB of target, so vocals and instruments sound natural. The catch: A 6.7 dB peak near 11.9 kHz can make cymbals and sibilance sound sharp.
The case for the KZ ZEX Pro: The median of 20 hobbyist measurements gives it a very good Harman preference score of 78 with a 1.60 dB spread. Watch for: Presence sits about 3.2 dB low with a 6.6 dB dip near 11.9 kHz, so vocals and instruments lose some bite.
Buy the EPZ G20 Pro or the KZ ZEX Pro on features: they are rated the same for sound quality at close to the same price.

Frequency Response Compared
Both headphones’ measurements overlaid on the Harman target. Above the target sounds louder in that range, below it quieter. Each curve is the median of several independent measurements, shifted so its 500 Hz to 2 kHz average sits at 0 dB, so only the tuning is compared.
