All very low end and will be much the same.
The last one is a childs bike.
For what usage type? They are all fairly basic/budget, but anaconda $399 one is probably the better of the three adult bikes, but not really suited for mountain bike style riding.
You would do better buying a decent brand, used bike off guntree from someone who is upgrading.

or stolen.
You'll likely get an even better deal on it then.
You can actually get TOP deals on stolen bikes. I've been tempted but can never bring myself to do it.
I love my bike - but don’t get enough use out of it. My favourite feature is that I don’t need to ever pump up the tyres.

I'd go a second hand bike over a $300-400 new bike. The quality will be much higher.
Probably better value - but if OP is rather inexperienced about bikes (as I am), they may not get a good bike for the $300-$400. Sifting through the second hand offers will be extremely time consuming.
The tip is to look for one at $200-$250 and allow some extra for parts or servicing. It isn’t hard to get a bike a few years old that was worth $1k for a good price. When you find one that looks ok, do a quick search to find out what it’s original price was and go from there.
I’ve bought and sold dozens of bikes and find $100-$150 to be good value, but I’m able to repair and maintain them myself. It isn’t hard to maintain a bicycle.

This. You can often pick up mid range Reid's and the like that are a few years old at $150 and under from international students they are moving home or young twenty somethings moving away somewhere. They are usually in a hurry to sell as well so you can pressure a little bit on price. They usually will chuck in helmets, locks, lights, etc. which you can on-sell for peanuts if you can be bothered.
You can clean them up a bit and use them and sell them for pretty much the same price a couple of years later.
