Short answer: a tie on sound quality. Both are rated 4.2/5 (#188 and #177 of 450 in-ear headphones), so choose on features and fit.

Why pick the Fatfreq Hayabusa: A preference score of 76 in crinacle’s measurement places its tuning reasonably close to the Harman target most listeners prefer. The catch: The response is uneven, at 1.94 dB standard deviation from target, so some frequency regions stand out or fall back.
Buy the Fatfreq Hayabusa or the Tin HiFi Huo on features: they are rated the same for sound quality at close to the same price.
