Electronics in general are you get what you pay for. It might work just as well for a while, but cheaper components will almost always fail quicker.
Apple is kinda a mixed bag in this regard. Sometimes the extra premium you paid is worth it because it lasts ten years, sometimes it breaks in six months because a single pin got bent in some critical internal connector. And sometimes they intentionally slow down old iPhones.
Apple products are so incredibly overpriced, they are never worth the money.
