This is correct. The high beam and the low beam are mechanically linked on the W210 cars making any sort of fine tuning of the high beam virtually impossible. It came as quite a disappointment when I figured this out on my own car.

The H7 bulb is a single filament bulb, not dual filament:




I had some issues when I got my W210 car last year. The high beams appeared to be absolutely worthless 'til I discovered the previous owner had installed some blue tinted bulbs. Once I got those removed things improved dramatically.

I've find the high beams to be very good on both our W210 cars.
