Should I Try to Win an Xbox One X or an Xbox One S?

I'm a 'member' of Microsoft Rewards (a.k.a. https://rewards.microsoft.com/?&rrid=_4a4d8ca6-d007-c59d-34cf-7b40dfa07200 Bing Rewards), and "sweepstakes entries" are one of the ways I can spend the points 'I earn' (by using Microsoft Bing, inviting others to join Microsoft Rewards, and setting 'the MR-dashboard' as my browser-homepage) there.
They are running one sweepstakes ('entry of which' I've set as 'a goal' for months now) to give away an Xbox One S console, and they're also running a sweepstakes to give away an Xbox One X prize-pack (which I might switch my 'goal' to).
The main reason I'm trying for the pack rather than the console is ... well, it's right there; the console is 'just a console,' while the pack is 'a console PLUS a wireless-controller PLUS headphones PLUS a $100 card PLUS a Game Drive Hub PLUS 12 months of Live Gold PLUS a 12 month Game Pass'
but tom's guide highlights a couple big differences between Xbox One-S & -X: X is about $200-more, on account of 'it features 4K Gaming & 4K Gameplay Capture (and it's packed more-tightly ).'
4K means ... about 8-times the Standard Resolution's pixels-on-screen (or 4-times the regular Full HD)

Well 'more-detailed' graphics ... but sometimes 8-bit graphics are all you need (back in the good ol` days when we had what we called "imagination").
