Good to know

When does X-Men take place in the MCU?

Although released in the 2000s and normally set around the same time, the X-Men universe's timeline is a glorious mess full of inconsistencies, and the movie works more logically 15 years after X-Men Origins: Wolverine, in 1994

How is X-Men connected to the MCU?

The movie takes place in a parallel universe, and some of its characters will appear in Deadpool & Wolverine as well as Avengers: Doomsday

Why watch X-Men at this point in the timeline?

Because watching these movies at their actual in-universe point would make no sense, and I think the events of Loki matter — as does having everything fresh in your head before Deadpool & Wolverine and Avengers: Doomsday

What about the post-credits scene(s)?

None
