Short answer: the NiceHCK Himalaya. Both are rated 4.0/5 for sound quality (#404 and #384 of 1291 in-ear headphones), and the NiceHCK Himalaya costs $329 against $359 for the Xenns Mangird Tea Pro, with sound quality a draw, the lower price decides it.
Why pick the NiceHCK Himalaya: The median of 4 hobbyist measurements gives it a solid Harman preference score of 74 with a 2.05 dB spread, and its mids sit within about 0.9 dB of target, so vocals and instruments sound natural. The catch: A 4.2 dB peak near 7.9 kHz can make cymbals and sibilance sound sharp.
Why pick the Xenns Mangird Tea Pro: The median of 14 hobbyist measurements gives it a solid Harman preference score of 74 with a 1.74 dB spread. Watch for: Presence sits about 4.3 dB low with a 6 dB dip near 5.8 kHz, so vocals and instruments lose some bite.
