Which of the new commander decks is actually worth buying? {Teferi, Temporal Archmage} looks good but {Daretti, Scrap Savant} intrigues me. Haven't had much of a chance to look at everything.
Teferi is good, but the precon that comes with him is awful. If you want to build a deck with him, buy him as a single.
Daretti and Nahiri have the most powerful decks out of the box, but all of them have their positives.
I would honestly suggest researching all commanders available and building from there
The precon decks suck as they seem to just hit 55mph in a 60mph zone and everyone else's deck is flying past you.
Not every deck needs a sol ring either :P

😱😱😱 how could you say such a thing!!?
I think from what I've heard {Nahiri, the Lithomancer} and {Darietti, Scrap Savant} are the best decks (and easy to upgrade because of the readily apparent theme), but Black seems to have a lot of good cards too.
First one I bought was daretti, and it's my fav my favorite, the synergy is amazing, creatures are awesome, and daretti himself is loads of fun. Was an amazing first date I just say
Buy them all, cannibalize them for parts for other decks
But money.
I think the green is arguably the best, but can be fragile, and always seems to be the top target. I have the black one, and it has tons of potential, is easy to upgrade, can recover from board wipes with its amazing mana and card draw ({Bloodgift Demon}, {Crypt Ghast}, {Disciple of Bolas}, {Infernal Offering}, {Magus of the Coffers}, and more), has creature removal, enough life gain to spend life for other cards, and can be changed to an {Ob Nixilis of the Black Oath} Demon deck or a {Ghoulcaller Gisa} Zombie deck. I think it is just better than the green deck.
The White deck has a great commander, but needs more equipments!
The Blue deck has the same problem: great commander (better than White), terrible deck (worse than White).
The Red deck is one I've never played and I think I would have to try it to understand the fun of it. I have seen it though. It looks fun and fairly consistent, and is never a target.
I've only played the White deck and the Black deck. All the others I've only watched and heard others comments about them.
Went with red, not disappointed.
