I've had 2 f30 335s with xenons as well as 2 f31 with Adaptive LED and 2 f31 without. The longest car I kept was for 28 months and that had the normal non-adaptive LED lights. Never did a side by side test, but did not notice a difference between LEDs...

The only difference I could tell was regarding the automatic brights - which had the extra button to turn down the brights when someone is coming. Nice feature - but couldnt tell the difference between brightness.
