Low flickerPhilips Hue LCD007 6" downlight full color smart bulb
The verdict
A full color 6" downlight bulb. Its white light is good (CRI 89, Rf 89), it dims down to 0.9 lm, its warmest white is 1854K, and flicker risk is low.
A strong pick for evenings: it gets both warm and very dim, so it can double as a night light.
