In theory they're good, but I've had a few too many allen/hex screws strip and having both SAE and metric standards is irritating. Tool quality has been an issue as well, I've had shitty Torx screwdrivers last for years and years while a decent allen wrench will snap or wear out way faster. Still miles better than Phillips though.
Edit: also you can use Torx bits on hex screws, so more points for Torx.
Don’t use torx bits on hex screws. It is super easy to strip them that way, and even easier to get the bit stuck.
You are right, but it has also saved me a few times when hex bits/wrenches weren't readily available.
Torx screws might last for years, but Torx bits don't last for more than a minute. Bloody hate them!
