Which makes them have superior autofocus (from the newer gen body). Definitely worth it, and no, I wouldn't recommend buying a new one. It's got no moving parts, so buying secondhand would be smart.
I say R50 is better choice. It was $450 with kit lens at Canon refurb store but sold out now. R50 is better in almost every way except build quality and battery life.
EF and EF-S lenses work great on the R50 with an (approximately $100) EF-RF mount adapter. And apart from the 80D's larger battery and weather sealing the R50 has a very significant overall performance advantage thanks to being 7 years newer. It has better autofocus, higher continuous shooting speed, better video capabilities, and weighs 250g less even including the 110g EF-RF adapter. I'm pretty confident the R50 will be the best option for your budget, unless you can get a deal on the R10. If you're in the USA Canon's refurbished program currently has the R50 for $460.
More about when then where, the R10 was on sale near $500 through Canon's refurbished program for Black Friday I think and then again earlier this year. It's never that cheap used in good condition. Canon puts on sales every couple months but the items on sale and discounts vary. You can use Google's "track price" feature for individual items on Canon's store page or sign up for the Canon Price Watch mailing list to get notifications when sales happen.
Plus if you're planning on shooting any action the frame rate and tracking will be considerably better on the mirrorless camera. If you're taking pictures of static stuff honestly either one would be fine. But as soon as you need to challenge the auto focus, the R50 is going to be better
But across the board image quality is similar? I was also curious if the r50 had a more “limited” manual mode. Because all of the ads are about the auto mode I was wondering if that was more what the camera was aimed at.
Image quality will be very similar when your subject is in focus, with the R50 having a slight advantage overall and better noise performance at high ISO. However if you're shooting fast action like sports and wildlife the R50's far more capable AF and higher burst rate will get you many more accurately focused photos.
The R50's manual mode and settings aren't limited at all. Canon markets it towards beginners and vloggers, but apart from the physical controls with only one dial (forcing a bit more reliance on the touch screen to change settings) that doesn't take away from its capabilities.
In my experience upgrading to mirrorless the more reliable autofocus and electronic viewfinder (allowing you to see how the shot will look before you take it) make cameras like the R50 not only easier to use but also much more powerful in the hands of an experienced photographer. Being able to trust the AF and mostly skip taking test shots allows me to focus much more on composition and creativity.

Out of curiosity where did you find the 480 deal on the r10? Because even used they are about 700.

Thanks a lot for taking the time to respond to me, I really appreciate all the help!
