I have joined the discussion late...but I just ordered an Xbox One X on Amazon ( as I will get a PS5 in holidays but want to play Halo Infinite) and looking at the Lockhart's leaked specs...I feel good in my purchase until I can upgrade to a series X a few years from now.

I don't think anything is wrong with your purchase decision since XBX is the best way to play 3rd party games, we are still 6 months away from the release of the next-gen consoles, which are definitely going to be more expensive than XBX. Also Lockhart is not even announced yet so who knows when it will be released. Additionally, MS openly said that there will be no XBSX exclusives for the first two years (so you are not losing much for at least 2.5 years). Basically if you want an Xbox machine now, XBX is the more reasonable option.

However, with that said, the Jaguar cpu cores, the lack of an SSD, as well as the new GPU feature set will start to give some sub-par performance on the XBX, which I don't think will be too big of deal-breaker for now. You can always resell you XBX for half the price and buy a next-gen XBSX or Lockhart anyways. I have recently bought a PS3 for around $100, fully modded, and I do not regret it a bit.
