1. No m.2 slot, only SSD. This is a significant bottleneck
2. No USB C connector
3. Only has wifi 5 (we are almost at wifi 7!)
Some other things that are normal but good to know for this price range, RAM is soldered on and the fan seems like it could be quieter.
For a few bucks more you can go with several other vendors that don't have the first 3 limitations noted above. I for one think the $20-$30 more could get you a better N100. I see why it's on sale.
During normal PC usage including boot and application start the bottleneck isn't SSD speed, it's seek latency, which is similar between PCIE ssds and even the very old now seeming SATA ssds. Difference in boot to windows is literally like two seconds.
Don't let the throughput numbers fool you. On that or the WiFi technology. WiFi 5 is totally fine for pretty much anything anyone would wanna do with this box. Don't be fooled into thinking you need stuff that you don't.

Each generation is faster due to many changes, modulation, channel width, etc.
peak speeds - theoretical
5 7 Gbps
6 9 Gbps
7 with QAM could get into 40+ range
Also changes in the protocol and connection management that support greater numbers of devices like breaking up channels reducing latency.
Ironically it seems the devices that would benefit the most by reducing load on the network are small IoT type which are often the farthest behind.
In general I would recommend getting the latest stable gen for a router upgrade, but wouldn't stress it on edge devices unless that device has a specific need and the additional cost is justifiable and necessary due to inability to hardwire.

I recently was able to buy a Trigkey G4 N100 with 16G for 120, a Beelink 5650U for 180 and Trigkey 5700U for 180. I also saw another GmkTec 5700U at 180 and I did not order.
Those deals don't last long so I did not bother to post, but if you need one, check Amazon once or twice a day and soon you will find a better deal. All the above were obtained last a couple weeks since I started to look into mini PCs.
