In terms of CRI, I have not yet found a line of LED bulbs that can accomplish the same color accuracy I've come to enjoy from my high-CRI fluorescent bulbs. CREE and SORAA are among the best, as far as I can tell. But I am a layperson when it comes to illumination. I have also decided to concede high-CRI as long as I can retain the high color temperature that I prefer (I prefer 5000K interior illumination even in the evening, which I understand is uncommon).

I'm not running a lab or anything where CRI is critical. I had simply preferred high-CRI when I was given the luxury of opting for that when I switched my house from incandescent to fluorescent ten years ago. I would like to see better CRI in LED, but to-date it doesn't seem to be a focus, even amount the high-end brands.
