Why did you go for a Pro over a regular iPhone 13 (for example).

I'm trying to workout which one to get, way too many options in 2022.

I do a lot of outdoor stuff, not sure if I want the weight of the pro, is it worth it?

The zoom lens. Worth the price alone.

As above and 6GB memory not 4GB. The processor is fast enough that it will be good for 5+ years with a battery replacement midway, but the 4GB ram might end up hurting before that.

This is how I feel, 3 years later, after getting the 11 Pro in 2019. If I do upgrade this year, I'll give it to my dad, and he'll probably use it till it breaks :)

Pro has 120hz refresh rate vs 60hz for the regular.

I’m not sure when the 14 will be released but I would wait if you can. It will be better at (most likely) the same price tag.
