If selective beam is not a priority for you, in terms of light output there is not much difference between Adaptive LED and Laser. In fact, Adaptive LEDs are very very good. To me they are good enough to comfortably drive 100mph on the autobahn just on the low beams.

Lasers only look much better in terms of the DRL signature. This was done deliberately by BMW to push more buyers in paying more for the Lasers.
Link to ihms test? The iihs tests in us show the laserlight units to be superior in both low and high beams
