I think you are talking about a projector vs a regular reflector housing.
Projectors are used to focus the light and provide a distinct cut off. You don't typically need that for high beams as they are not used with other vehicles on the road.
The older 2010 - 2013 5th gens had reflectors for both low and high beams.. and they actually worked very well. Projectors are generally required for HIDs or LEDs due to the intensity, but I think the 5th gen projectors are actually designed for halogens (although I'm sure you can run HIDs or LEDs with no major problems for other vehicles. Pretty sure it is technically illegal in some state... but very rare to get hassled if you have projectors.
