Sunset lamp: 5 in 1 or 16 in 1?

Just found out my 16 year old niece would like a sunset lamp for Christmas.
I'm hoping Mumsnet wisdom can help me choose the right one.
Obviously I never heard of such a thing until tonight. Google revealed it's one of those tiktok crazes and I looked at the options.
I don't want to get a 1 colour only version.

5 in 1 looks like you have to change the filters to get the colour you want (sunset or red sunset or rainbow etc)

16 in 1 appears to have 16 colour choices or rather lighter to darker of 4 colours that adds up to 16. It also doesn't look like it needs filter changes because it is an RGB option so the colours are mixed like on a multi coloured LED strip. It also has 4 settings for steady light, increasing brightness etc. Or at least that's what I understand.

My question is: if she wants sunset or red sunset or any of the 5 options from the 5in1 version, will the 16in1 show the exact same colours or is the 16in1 creating a completely different atmosphere.

giving you a little bump as dd has asked for one too and I’ve no idea what I’m looking for

@Handsnotwands thank you
I suspect my niece's parents don't have a clue either and that's why they passed the problem to me! 😁

Well I went with the 16 in 1 version in the end from a website which may or may not be genuine - how can you tell?! Paid with PayPal so hopefully all goo. Apparently arriving tomorrow. Let's see. What a stressful task!

😂 let me know if it does arrive and I might take my chances too

@Handsnotwands the 16 in 1 lamp has just been delivered.
The box is the size of a hardback book - I expected to be bigger, but maybe it's a small lamp.
The box looks like it does on the website but we won't know if it works until Christmas when I shall gift it. Let's hope it's the right thing.
If you google sunset lamp it's the first Ad link officialsunsetlamp it has an orange logo
