Buying last year's model is a great way to save some money, but it is a fool's errand with Wi-Fi
Wi-Fi is still in its infancy and the difference between 6 and 7 is huge. Even if you don't have 7 devices now, you will soon and you will not be able to benefit from the increased performance and stability and reliability with 7.
I wouldn't say run out and replace a good working Wi-Fi 6 system, but if you are buying new, replacing Wi-Fi 5, etc. don't waste your time with a 6 or even 6E, buy a 7, they are backward compatible for your old stuff.

I agree with that, always within the budget. It is just this is $500 and at that price you are in Wi-Fi 7 territory

Some of the devices that I have been watching that are a year old are still showing right around the same price as when they were released last year.
