I recently had my E3 Pro 2 nicked and replaced with an IQ-X. Can't point to a massive difference in beam without having them side-by-side, though I found the E3 easier to level than the B&M.
One thing I liked about the E3 was the actual power button that felt like a real switch, so you knew whether it was on or off (easier to troubleshoot wiring faults) whereas the B&M has to be rolling to turn it on. The B&M standlight will turn off when you turn it off, though.
If the IQ-X got nicked, I'd probably buy another rather than go back to an E3, though can't speak for longevity as I've only had it a couple of months.
