Do you have a 4k TV/monitor? Then get the X, full stop.

Do you plan on getting one? X.

Can you afford the extra $200? X.

Will you ever buy disks? X.

Interested in playing old Xbox/360 games? X (due to disks).

Basically, get the X unless you specifically know you won't use the features.

I'm inclined to go with the S to be honest, although my upstairs TV is 4k 50 inch it'll rarely be used, as my main gaming will be done on the PS5. I will also likely be getting the PSVR2 so that's more $ later next year. In terms of discs and old games I doubt it, haven't bought a physical game in years and game pass seems to have more than I need.

You know your use case better than some randos in the interwebz.

My advice is predicated on the concept of avoiding future regret. If the S does what you want/need, go for it.

Having an X and a 4K TV, I’d recommend the Series S. 1440p and 120FPS is as good/good enough at half the cost.
