Not sure about the negative voting. Even without considering the OCuLink Port (with Adapter), this is one of the cheapest Mini PC, both for the Barebone and the RAM + Storage version. The equivalent Bee-Link GTR 7 with 32GB Ram + 1TB SSD is $689 in Amazon and $709 in their official store, even higher than the 64GB Ram + 1TB SSD version of this.

Performance wise, they're pretty similar, you can check any reviews, like the Notebookcheck.net one as below: -
https://www.notebookcheck.net/Min...606.0.html

As per them, in CPU performance, BEELINK SER7 and GTR 7 are just 6% ahead on average in CPU performance but the in the integrated GPU performance, this one is ahead of almost al the the devices with 780M Graphics.

I have the 780xtx and it's been great. Do not buy from their website though and pickup from Amazon (shipping is way faster, easier returns)

Thhe barebone is not available in Amazon. Some of the Ram + SSD models are available but the price is a bit high, around $20-$40. But yes, if someone is willing to pay that extra, Amazon will be a faster option to get this.

Regarding the Device itself, how is your experience so far? The reviews I have seen, it performs very good without any thermal throttling and top performer among the 7840HS based systems.

$10 cheaper and it lacks the flexibility of OCuLink port expansion, which is kind of Unique feature on this model. On top of that, this has better port selections, 2x USB4 port vs one on GMKTek, 4x USB-A 10 Gbps port vs 2, HDMI 2.1 (4K@144Hz) vs HDMI 2.0 (4K@60Hz) and a USB 2.0 port in GMKTek.
performance wise also, this can be configured to 70W with out-of-the box TDP of 65W whereas the one you referenced, maxed out to 54W. That model is pretty new and I did not find any actual reviews for that.

It's been good. I've had no throttling (it's actiua;ly been fairly silent) doing standard tasks (emulation, playing 4K files, updates, etc) but I haven't really pushed it to it's maximum yet playing AAA games.
