I have an Ender printer as well and probably wouldn't recommend it. IMHO, the Bambu printers are a much better value.

The exception might be if 3d printing itself is your hobby and you enjoy tinkering endlessly, upgrading parts, tramming, setting esteps, etc...

Auto leveling printers alone are a godsend. Having to manually level my Ender 3 got to be a true pain but it sure did teach me a lot as a beginner!

Adding the autoleveling probe and firmware made my Ender 3 usable. I still try to make sure the bed is somewhat level, but I agree that this is a must-have feature.

My ender 3 has autolevelling build in, that might be part of the new V3 stuff. I thought it might be giving bad results at one point, but it turned out to be an incorrect temperature setting
