I'm a noob and have been wanting to get into 3D printing. Which of these would be recommended?
Personally I would get the svo6. It allows faster printing speed and potentially more accuracy but might be harder to get it tuned. Get the svo5 if you want simplicity and a more widely used style of 3d printer. Get the svo1 pro if you want a better version of the svo6. Build plate size should taken into consideration (if you are going to print big things get a printer with a big build plate). I would not bother getting the svo4 expensive and if you are just starting you won't know how to take full advantage of the dual independent extruders.

Would recommend the Bambu labs P1P ($600) or X1C to any and all. It is the most turnkey printer. It also prints so fast you effectively get two printers. The Sovol 06 is old tech and a bed slinger. 07 ($299) at least has Klipper. I would not recommend non Klippers to anyone at this point. Marlins are dinosaurs now. Neptune 3 is the same boat - get the Neptune 4 ($259) instead.
If you want to have fun printing things, get the BambuLabs printers. I have 6 Enders and the difference between them is night and day. it's like futuretech in comparison.

The ones you recommended are no where near the same price point as this deal though.

Neptune 4 is $259 and the Sovol SV07 is part of this sale right now for $299 with coupon code 07KLIPPER. So they aren't that far off.
Regardless of price though, I would not recommend an old, slow printer to anyone. I can't understate enough just how fast these new printers are compared to the old Marlin ones. My P1P prints twice as fast as my Enders and with better quality. It's like having two printers.
Installing Klipper for SV06 or SV06 Plus is very well documented by users. I have SV06 and SV06 Plus, both Klipperized. They are both decent printers considering the price point.
The customer service is not the best (probably understaffed), you may wait up to a week to get an email back. Say you need to replace a part, it would take around a month, a couple emails back and forth, plus the parts being shipped from China.

The first time you go to the site there is a spin wheelwith discount codes. Turns out you can clear your cookies or open the site in a private tab and do it over and over with fake email addresses. In case anyone does order heres a couple. I rolled it about 40 times and this is all that came up so not sure if the others discounts are real or not:
2PLA - $10 off 2 PLA
Q16C - $5 off $200
FL10 - 10% off filiment
SVK3 - 3% off SV01Pro
