If I were buying a budget meter now, the auto-ranging kind do look tempting as they appear faster than they were. Screen visibility issue is a definite no. Backlight LED eat power, and cheap meters don’t work well on low batteries.
The meters I have are possibly the cheapest meter (not those compact kind) and have 0.03 and 0.04 ohm internal resistance. But I think they are fine for hobby level tinkering. Would I buy another Uni-T now? Possibly, if it had some more features like temperature and continuity beep.
If I bought a Fluke or similar I would feel bad if I didn’t calibrate it regularly and didn’t have a use for the greater resolution/precision.
Edit - With some modification the meter you got could be turned into one to just measure voltage drop and resistance (replace the probes, though I can’t see sockets so you would need to solder them).
It’s more fun I think, from a learning point of view, if you have more than one meter.
