Judging by the initial performance reviews, I'd say;
If you are neutral between the two camps, and cannot afford $500, then go for the Playstation 5 digital, which has 2-3x the times performance of Series S and seems to match the performance of Series X so far. I would not buy a Series S for myself not just because of the lower performance but also the storage with far too little space. But if you are an Xbox fan and devoted to the camp, then go for the Series X. Only if you are going to gift it to somebody else, then Series S might be good for you....
