It depends on the use case. As the sibling says, you want both, ideally a gamut, depending on the use case.
When I bought the light in my comment, I already had some Hue white lights, but they didn't make much of a difference during the day. Some pencil Osram lights [0] did help somewhat in the morning, so that's when I decided I should try a "serious" LED light. As this was for working during the day, I wanted a cooler light, but my experience with other "cool white" lights was that they looked too much like hospitals, so I settled somewhere in the middle.
While I never tried to measure the temperature, it's definitely cooler than the Hues and Osrams, but I still find it pleasant.
