What you get with a lot of cheap gamer brands is a steel plate, tray mount, poor remapping options, and so-so switches.
So still like a million times better than whatever garbage came with your PC. I have an "E-Yooso" I still plug in sometimes. I changed the switches using "narrow 3-pin" outemus, changed the keycaps, and I actually remapped a key or two with Redragon software. It's... nice. I don't know what else to say.
That said, Keychron's dived into the superbudget space with QMK enabled Lemokeys (no hot swap though), and their C and V stuff is also findable as open box in the same price range as these, so you're probably better off going with them.
