How easy gearing is has nothing to do with how many speeds, rather...how easy the gearing is. Speeds regulate how big the steps between cogs are, but again, Sram Eagle are no better than the Advent X at the really low gears, as the jump to the "granny" 50 or 52 is up from a 42T or 36-42‐5xT in all cases, much like the Microshift goes 34-40-48T. So even having more speeds, doesn't really guarantee a more consistent cadence, at least not @ the really hard gears...you have to look into it vs. declaring "10 = bad, sarcasm".
At the end of the day, going a smaller chainring on the Microshift (say a 30 down from a 32) will give you easier gearing (eg 30/48 = .625) that is really close to 32/52 and easier than 32/51T (but again, too close to matter if all you care is the low gear to make it easy going up).
Absolute beginners are in for a hard workout regardless of gearing. And reality is, with bikes you can always exhaust yourself: it doesn't get easier with time, just faster.

you can guy GT bikes for $350 here at local sports stores like dicks sporting goods.
The only thing I don't like is that there's no callout as to whether or not the wheelset and tires are tubeless compatible. Going tubeless is the fastest way to improve your cycling experience as a noob, as you reduce your chances of flatting on a ride to almost zero, so long as you don't live in some horribly spiky place. Lookin' at you, American Southwest.
Even with that, the price is good enough that later upgrading the wheels and tires is worth it if you decide MTB is for you.

48t = .67
51t = .63
With a 32 tooth chain ring. And as some one that rides moderately challenging terrain I can't tell any real difference. Swap a 30t chainring on it for a few bucks and now the advent x has the same .63 if it is a problem.

Swapping in a smaller chainring gets you lower gears, but at the expense of the high end.
