They basically still are, it's just the advanced models with extra RAM. A Pi 5 with 16GB of RAM is a perfectly decent PC, and for the price, in the current market, is good. If you want a Pi to use the way you used to... That's still in the region you were thinking. I bought a bunch of Pi 3s for a project recently, cost about £30 each.
