Security Lights, photocell + PIR

I'm needing to replace the light by the front door. I'm looking for one with a "dusk to dawn" setting and a PIR. I've found a couple

Colour temps are suppose to be different and I think the photocell one is suppose to be a cool white. I like the classic tungsten tones, poeple talk about changing the lamp but I'm not quite sure if it's the top or bottom one.

I like this one too.

But not the price or design, so I suppose the feature.

Anybody have any suggestions? I'm hoping to install over the next couple of days.

Could you get this one and put a led bulb in the colour you want

What did you find in the end @ash_scotland88 ? I'm looking for one of these to put down by our garage as it gets very dark now the nights are (have drawn) drawing in.

That Philips looks good but far too expensive for what I want.

...and I want something with a decent sensor, so somewhere in between.

I think you can buy lights and separate sensors. What if you went this route and coupled it with a hue bulb?
