Help!

I am looking at two K-VS2-XXX diamonds. Both GIA certified. Both at James Allen.

1 The first is a 2.2 carat.
57% table; 43% pavilion depth; 35%/41% angles
No florescence

2. The second is 2.37 carat.
56% table; 43% pavilion depth; 35%/40.8% angles
Strong Blue florescence

Beyond the obvious size differences, how will these two diamonds perform differently and what other information should I review? The certificates can be seen on the site. Thanks to all in advance.
 
You can run the stones through the HCA tool to get a quick answer on how they might perform.
Be sure to use the depth of the stone and not the pavilion depth when you enter the numbers. We look for
stones to score 2 or under to be good candidates and a lower number like 0.9 is not better than a 1.7...just
look for 2 or under. Over 2 but close to 2 may be ok with an idealscope/aset image to see whats going on.

The 2.37 have better angles and not cut as deep as the smaller stone.
 
Of these 2, definitely the 2.37....like tyty said, the angles are complimentary and I also like that it has SBF (especially with a K color).

It may just be the video, but the 2.20 also seems to have a tinge of gray undertone...
