The King Performance and Competition are great options for beginners learning chess. The two are the same in their functionality.
The Info screen provides a points based indicator on your current game position (winning? losing?), best move calculation, hints, as well as a host of game modes and tweaks that can be dialed in to a particular players level. The computer's playing style can be tweaked as well. And unique to both units, openings are named by their actual names, instead of by ECO code. And the computer's functionality can be extended through the add on accessory Chesslink, allowing you to connect to different apps and play online.
If you plan learn through positional play (ie setting up positions), you may find setting up those positions takes a little bit longer than units offering full piece recognition (like the Genius Exclusive or Chess Classics Exclusive) where you can essentially put the pieces on the board, push a few buttons and you're ready to play. This chess pieces is designed for quality and enjoyable play.
