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.

I installed 14 Philips Hue White & Color LEDs in 2016 and so far not a single one of them broke. They were quite expensive back then (around 40€ per bulb) but I'm still quite happy with the overall quality. Not sure if they are still as durable but nowadays they are way cheaper, so maybe that's an option for you as well.
