Remember, LED lights have a switch to set brightness. Make sure you like the brightness on the first one, then set all the others to the same setting. I think you're actually referring to color temperature. A lot of the newer ones have an adjustment from 2700k-5000k. Lower on the end is warmer light (more yellow) and higher is cooler light (more blue). For bedrooms and living rooms, 2700k or 3000k is preferable. For kitchens, garages, closets, 4000k isn't as uncomfortable on the eyes
Sorry, yes this. We put them on the brighter setting, then installed a dimmer.

We are in the midst of a complete kitchen redo.
We opted for 2 rows of 6 lights each.
We went with metal frames, 4" size, set the color to 2700k which I think looks fantastic and they have the "Halo" eyes which turn on a nightlight ring around them when you flip them off and on within 5 seconds.
We absolutely installed a nice lutron dimmer as well.
So far I'm very pleased with the result.
