Short answer: the HIDIZS My LIN. It ranks #1011 of 1369 in-ear headphones by sound quality, rated 3.2/5, at $99; the Shure SE215 ranks #1019, rated 3.1/5, and costs $109, which makes this an easy call rather than a real tradeoff.
The case for the HIDIZS My LIN: About 4 dB more bass than the Harman target below 150 Hz, for listeners who want a fuller low end. The tradeoff: An uneven response, 2.5 dB standard deviation from target.
What the Shure SE215 does well: Bass from 60 to 200 Hz is lifted by about 4.2 dB with low mids up 2.2 dB, giving a warm, full sound that suits rock, pop and hip hop. The tradeoff: Treble from 6 to 10 kHz is about 3 dB low with a 5.9 dB dip near 6.7 kHz, and the top octave is down 2.7 dB, so cymbals and air sound dull.
Buy the HIDIZS My LIN. It is rated higher for sound quality than the Shure SE215 and costs less, so only choose the other one for a particular feature it does better.

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.
