To be very broad and reductive, you can expect the overall performance level of these machines fall somewhere between the PS4 Pro, and the PS5. On top of that, it's small, quiet, and consumes relatively little electricity. This is a killer bargain for someone with moderate expectations and requirements, who isn't fixated on ultra-high settings and framerates in all of the latest titles.
Not really, no. The CPU in the MXZ machine benches around 10% faster, but all other components being equal, the 6600M soundly beats the 1660 Super in every single matchup, sometimes dramatically so (the 6600M and the 6600 are essentially the same part with the same overall performance, so don't worry that this video shows a 6600 instead of a 6600M specifically):

The trade-off is that you can't really upgrade the GPU or CPU in these Minisforum machines. But honestly, the upgrade path for that MXZ machine on Newegg is kind of limited as well. You could spend $350 on a 5800X3D to drop in there later on and wring another 10-20% extra performance out of it, but other than that, the AM4 platform is finally reaching EOL, so there's only so much further you can take it. Likewise, you can drop in a faster GPU, but by that point you might be better off to just think about a whole new machine based around AM5 and next-generation GPUs.
The Beelink machines only have the integrated graphics that are built into the Ryzen APU. These Minisforum machines linked here also have a 6600M dedicated GPU. The performance difference in games will be massive, like a full order of magnitude between them. Compare Doom Eternal running on the 6600H alone, like in the Beelink:

And here with a 5800H plus the 6600M, like in the Minisforum:

There's no comparison whatsoever.
Correct, but this particular CPU family is nearing the end of its lifespan anyways. AMD is now introducing the AM5 socket, which will be the standard within the next couple of years. This machine will be a solid performer for the next few years, until the AM5 platform stabilizes a bit.

If they had a 5600H version for ~$100 less it would be a fantastic value.
