As irrational as it may sound, I'll probably get an Xbox One this year.
I don't want the original model. It's bulky and has a bulky AC adapter. I don't want the S All-Digital because it's too limiting.
So that leaves the S or X. I know many of you will say to just get a Series X or S. But Series X is usually $400-$500, and Series S is usually $220-$300.
I see Xbox One S consoles for $80-$150 a lot, and Xbox One X for $120-$250.
I have a PS5, so it's not like I have nothing in the current gen. I also have no interest in a Gaming PC right now.
I'm leaning towards the One X because despite the higher cost it is a lot more powerful than a One S and sometimes still cheaper than a Series S. 

You'll actually still be able to play current-gen games that you may be interested in on your Xbox One via xCloud. 

So if you're interested in Hellblade 2 or Indiana Jones, you won't need a Series X/S or a Gaming PC to enjoy them. 

Yes. That and some other things.

I played an Xbox 360 in my teens somewhat but got my own in December and I like it.

With an Xbox One, I could

-Play select Xbox and Xbox 360 games with better fidelity.

-Play first-party Xbox One games that I don't have access to on other consoles and don't want to buy and optimize on PC. 

-Play third-party games that aren't on PlayStation. There's not a lot of them, but they exist. 

I fiddled with some settings for Disneyland Adventures on PC and I'm not fully satisfied. It's a cloud title, so it's in my library and my progress will carry over to play on Xbox One.
