Paint for bedrooms with low natural light. Is SW Pure White OK?

HU-455458186
last month

We'll be using Sherwin-Williams Pure White for the walls / trims / doors of our 3br apartment. But the 2 smaller bedrooms have limited natural light (only 1 window in each, both partially obstructed by the window air conditioners).

Does it make sense to use a higher LRV paint for these 2 bedrooms - such as BM Chantilly Lace, SW White Snow, SW Cheviot, SW High Reflective White, etc.? Or SW Pure White is good enough?


I read some comments that if the rooms have low light, this type of paint is not the best because its LRV is 84 and it will look dingy/grey/dark.
