I’ve had the same experience with Beamtech. If you don’t adjust them, low is hi and hi is in the trees.

Same
I put Beamtechs in my '19 about 7 days after it arrived home from the dealership, light is 100% better than the horrible stock lights and I have not been flashed once by an oncoming driver.
Pattern is as good as stock, just now I can see.
Ignore the LED swap doomsayers.

I also looked at the posts before buying and really compared the beam patterns at different distances before I drove it anywhere.

Beamtech guys, It seems like you like these so far. Any problems with them holding up in extreme cold / heat. Problems like flickering ... I normally spend a bit more but for the price I think Ill give them a shot. I just want to avoid those cheap looking leds if you know what i mean
Thanks again for the replies
I see the usual naysayers are out with their snide comments. Whatever. Life's too short to argue with internet strangers. They should be more concerned about the idiots with 4 foot LED light bars in their grill that use them on road.
I got great results for low cash outlay and have very seldom been flashed in over 2 years. If you install them check your height adjustment. I found that mine were set as high as they would go from when the truck was brand new on my 2017 and had to adjust them downward. In the end it's your truck and your money. Spend it as you like.

Any issues with flickering? Do you have auto high beam / low beam on your truck? Any issues with that option and or your daytime running lights.
I have the GTR Ultra 2's with the PWM modules.
Started having flickering issues with driver side lower left lamp. Very intermittent. More so when I apply the brakes.
I think this was happening all along I just happened to noticed when parked in front of some glass windows where I could see the lamps in the reflection of the glass.
Talked with GTR - replace the lamp and the PWM - still doing it.
I removed them tonight and put the halogens back. Would hope there are no issues with your setup given the cost for a set.
Same questions for Beamtech users too
I hate the Halogens - they are sooooo bad.

Fogs are easy-peasy, no issues; the passenger side seems accessible but is there a "trick" to releasing the OEM lights? Push in and rotate, rotate left/right or get a freekin hammer? And the Drivers side looks pretty cramped spaces; 30 min to me sounds pretty awesome so please give up the secrets to a :30 install they would be greatly appreciated.
(FWIW it was 104F so I did not spend too much time roasting in the sun...)

I think I might try these out when I get my truck:

BulbFacts ranked them at the top of high-end led bulbs.

I just got a full set of BeamTechs and a quick look at the location of the lights made me think this was gonna a little more work than first thought.

I keep seeing videos of guys pulling out their entire headlight assemblies to change their bulbs, until I seen this guy's video:
I know removing your grill and headlights isn't a huge deal, but it seems like this method is lot simpler.
