In Apple ecosystem. The iPhone Pro keep more of its value then iPhone. ( depending on region ) So in reality you actually spend less then $200 if you sell it within 2-3 years, for 120Hz screen, better camera, usable zoom, and better battery life. Which isn't really a bad deal to be honest. iPhone 16 would have been close to perfect if it had say 3X zoom and 120hz screen. The weight and thickness of Pro also make it slightly harder to hold.
