Short answer: the Intuaura Reference 2019. It ranks #7 of 1291 in-ear headphones by sound quality, rated 4.9/5, at $34.99; the Simgot EW100P ranks #37, rated 4.8/5, at $32.62. Close enough in price that the sound-quality gap is the deciding factor.
The case for the Intuaura Reference 2019: In the median of five hobbyist measurements on squig.link, the Reference 2019 posts a preference score of 87 with under 1 dB of unevenness, among the most accurate in-ears measured. Watch for: Treble runs a bit lively, with a 5.8 dB peak near 8 kHz and the air band about 2.3 dB high, so bright recordings can sound sharp.
Why pick the Simgot EW100P: In oratory1990’s measurement it earns a preference score of 83 with a deviation of only 1.49 dB, so its single 10mm dynamic driver tracks the Harman target unusually closely. The catch: A 5.8 dB dip near 9.7 kHz and treble running about 2.4 dB under target between 6 and 10 kHz soften cymbals and string texture, while the 10 to 16 kHz air region is 3.6 dB hot.
Buy the Intuaura Reference 2019. It is rated higher for sound quality, and the $2.37 you would save on the Simgot EW100P does not close the gap.

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.
