9005 headlight upgrade question

I need to replace my driver's side (will do both sides) low beam and want to upgrade to the 9005 mod. But I want to know if I should stay with the normal HID upgrade or is there a better advantage in useing one of the new LED bulbs. The LED bulbs are cheaper but they come in several configurations and I don't know the advantages/disadvantages. Some are 13LEDS and other can be 18/63/128 SMD. I do know that the LEDs draw less current and suppose to last longer but what about range and brightness/intensity/color? Anyone have any experience/recommendations and what is the difference between LED and SMD except, I assume, size?
