Thanks, I stand(or sit) corrected.

I do plan on getting the 200D/SL2. I'm going to wait for a while for the price to drop.

It is easy to equate Canon's first generation 24mp APS-C senor with its second generation. At a glance they look nearly identical.

I think the body only price for the SL2 might go down to $450USD and the kit to $500-$525USD eventually but it will take a while. I don't think we will see fire sales on it as it has little competition at the moment from Nikon.

And probably won't. nikon says PDAF on sensors degrades IQ so their sensors don't have it. They are foregoing autofocus in live view and in video for that!

Of course they are going to say that. It is good marketing if you don't have it. Have you seen Nikon's live view AF performance? They aren't exactly setting the world on fire with it.  They had better worry about live view performance in their DSLRs if they want to sell cameras in any volume.
