I drive quite a lot on unlit country roads and the laser lights are brilliant. If I lived in a town I wouldn't bother though as they only really come alive in the country roads.
My wife has a mini JCW with Matrix led headlights. When I had my F31 BMW I found these matrix headlights on the mini to be noticeably better,
Not completely groundbreaking but noticeable. The lighting ahead was just clearer somehow, almost like HD to non HD tv is how I describe it.
I then got the laser lights and they are a little better than the Matrix, less of a difference than the F31 to the mini but again, noticeable. They seem to punch a bit further ahead. Both react to oncoming cars very quickly.
I get flashed occasionally, usually when going uphill and someone towards coming down. I do notice that my beam isn't lighting up their cabin though. I just think they are brighter than what people are used to.
