Definitely not worth it in my opinion.
I have it on my car and never use it, I think it’s too slow to react to oncoming traffic. By the time it flicks back to dipped beam I would have already seen the oncoming car in the distance and knocked high beam off.
@AndrewW , forgive me if I’m stating the obvious but you do know the sensitivity is an adjustable setting, yes?Definitely not worth it in my opinion.

Ah, forgive me @AndrewW , I fear @MattS5 might be right; put it down to my ever-advancing dementia.....I'd like to know where it is in the settings. The only one I can see is for the automatic headlights to cone on early or later,which I assumed to be ambient light level adjustment for the auto headlights on, not high beam assist
Thats tricky to say when I'd need to be the driver of the oncoming car, to confirm I was dazzling them.But do you tend to switch it manually a second or so sooner than you need to?
We already know that my memory isn’t what it once was, but I seem to recall that when I got the S4, it was you @Dippy who suggested I set the auto lights to “early”.Personally I feel that even if most people are being tolerant of my headlights and not expressing their displeasure, there will always be at least one who isn't and will flash their headlights at me. I have been driving my S5 with automatic headlights on the early setting for nearly 5 years now and I do not get flashed. That's the basis on which I feel that the system works, at least for my car.
Looks to be somewhat age related and the newer systems are a bit quicker to react. The system in my car is coming up 10yr old now so makes sense that it isn’t quite as good as the newer ones
