Short answer: the KiiBoom Allure. It ranks #610 of 1291 in-ear headphones by sound quality, rated 3.8/5, at $99.99; the EUIU UI-05 ranks #659, rated 3.7/5, at $99. With prices this close, go by the sound-quality ranking rather than the cost.
The case for the KiiBoom Allure: A broadly balanced tuning with a preference score of 71 against the Harman target. Watch for: Treble about 4 dB below target from 3 to 10 kHz, which can sound dull or veiled next to brighter headphones.
What the EUIU UI-05 does well: A hybrid with coaxial 10mm and 6mm dynamic drivers plus three balanced armatures. The tradeoff: Treble sits about 3.6 dB below target, a dark, relaxed balance.
Buy the KiiBoom Allure. It is rated higher for sound quality, and the $0.99 saving on the EUIU UI-05 is not enough to make up the difference.

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.
