Short answer: a tie on sound quality. Both are rated 3.2/5 (#978 and #1006 of 1369 in-ear headphones) at nearly the same price ($18.04 vs $14.99), so choose on features and fit.
What the KBEAR Storm does well: Bass is lifted about 5.1 dB with extension to 20 Hz, giving kick drums and bass lines extra weight. The catch: An 8.2 dB peak near 8.2 kHz can make cymbals and sibilance sound sharp.
What the TRN V10 PRO does well: A published AutoEQ preset corrects its response toward the Harman target, so a few minutes of EQ setup closes most of the gap. The catch: Treble about 3 dB below target from 3 to 10 kHz, which can sound dull or veiled next to brighter headphones.
Buy the KBEAR Storm or the TRN V10 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.
