Yeah same.  "Osram Xenarc Night Breaker unlimited" to give them their full name, the 'unlimited' bit being their most recent revision, with claimed a XX% extra brightness, but in all honesty, I noticed hardly anything extra over the OEM phillips D2S bulbs.  Thinking of swapping them out for some decent LEDs actually.

Have tried both the Osram nightbrakers and the Philips 6000k white xenon

Like the philips much more :)
