Uk Smart Bulb Recommendations (lemmy.world)

My home is mostly using smart switch or relays for lights, but we now have a specific need for some RGB light bulbs. Has anyone got any recommendations for good colour smart bulbs readily available in the UK?

I'd prefer Zigbee but am open to Wifi options if necessary. Currently leaning towards the innr bulbs as they seem a quality option but a fair bit cheaper than the likes of Hue.

Yes, I was looking at the IKEA bulbs, but I've seen a lot of reports on coil whine and bulbs failing. How have you found the reliability of the IKEA bulbs?

I think I have had one fail, and one kept loosing it's link to the network, but I think that's been fixed by a firmware update.

For the discussion of smart homes, home automation and the like. Because of the instance it will tend to have a more UK flavour but everyone is welcome.
