Its CPU performance doubles the Raspberry Pi 5.

But with a price starting from 149$ it also doubles the price of a raspberry. I think if you are looking for a cheaper alternative to a Pi, go for used/refurbished thin clients that ran out of leasing. At least here in Germany they are often sold for cheap.

Any idea on where I can find clients that fall out of lease?

Ebay or any other marketplace that sells used goods.

If you're in Germany checkout mydealz.de. There, such offers are posted by users more or less every week. There are similar user-driven deal websites in other countries (HotUKDeals, CholloMetro in Spain, Pepper in Poland, ...) but these I don't follow regularly.
