So unless Diamond Vision achieve the 5000K colour (HID blue) by some clever means I have not heard of, then there is NO WAY they can be better than Philips X-treme Power / Osram Nightbreakers.
EDIT: Just had a look at some Diamond Vision bulbs online. The glass is definitely coloured blue, so they are definitely filtering the light, resulting in less light on the road. So basically coloured bulbs for posing, not a lighting upgrade. To top it off these bulbs are not 'E'-marked and therefore cannot be legally used on the road in the EU.
