I can buy an entire second hand car for the cost of an audi matrix headlight. I can see fine out of my classic headlight (€229 for complete brand new saab 900 headlight at r&d carparts). It is real glass so it never fades and a fresh bulb is litterally a couple cents.

Pros: real glass, never fades
Cons: unnecessarily expensive
Vehicle: Saab 900

Though in my opinion, it's not the best looking Audi headlight. Although functionally/technologically inferior to this, my vote goes to B8 A4 HID headlights with that curved row of individual LEDs. It was characterful, and had exquisite design elements inside of it that worked in harmony with the lines that travelled around the car. Headlights in cars of that era were simple and boring and at best consisted of a round projector and another reflector for high beams plus indicators. B8 A4's HID lights were at a totally different level and shouted style and luxury. With these lights Audi started the game of DLR and using it as a design signature.

Pros: style and luxury
Cons: functionally inferior

Peak Audi headlights are the S5 B8.5 headlights.

So peak that even aftermarket headlights for other cars call them "Audi style headlights" just like the Ferrari style or Lamborghini style headlights.

They are so iconic and unique that you see them and you immediately think audi.

Pros: iconic and unique
Vehicle: Audi S5

Crazy smooth. Not as much pick up as the X5 (because of the electric part of the engine) I was looking at first but once the turbo kicks in it sound and feels great. Turbo lag is a drag. By the way I did the headlight upgrade. Definitely worth it

Pros: crazy smooth, great sound and feel
Cons: turbo lag is a drag
Vehicle: Audi

Rating 3.5

My 2024 does this when the weather fluctuates, it clears up after a bit once the weather stabilizes or the mid morning sun hits it. I was also told it's normal to an extent, fog or light condensation will clear up. Was told to let them know if it looks like water is running down inside, streaking, doesn't clear up, puddles, or if the whole thing fogs up, then the overall seal has failed or is faulty.

Pros: condensation clears up
Cons: condensation occurs

The halogen headlights are not good at all. The visibility on low beam is poor and I almost have to rely on high beam. I am planning to upgrade but would like to know what others recommend.

Cons: poor low beam visibility

The default setting for the headlights were adjusted as high as they went. Annoyingly you couldn't change it whilst driving, you had to root around in the infotainment.

Cons: default setting too high, difficult to adjust
