I have 16 suburban with HID. Looking to upgrade the headlights. Still try to decided between Osram CBB or Philips HID X-treme Vision gen II. One review said the philips better than the CBB. Another review said the CBB better than philips. Anybody have any of these bulbs? What do you guys think?

I'd go with the Phillips
Philips all day long.
Will never again buy a HID bulb from Osram. Did by Night breaker D1S to one of my cars and have projector lenses on it.
The pink flickering old bulbs did have better burning point and sharper cutoff line.

My biggest battle w/ HID bulbs was finding a reseller that wasn’t selling counterfeit bulbs from China.

I have Osram CBI on my caddy. Nice bulbs. Looks like the CBB is the latest iteration, slightly more lumens, and cooler temp.
From what I understand they are similar. CBB has slightly cooler color (not really 7000k blue) and philips puts out a tiny bit more lumens.
Which is more important to you?
