I've owned a few Kona bikes in the past, I've found them to have a great build quality, and reliable.

V brakes actually stop better than their equivalent discs (price point) in dry conditions- however because they brake directly onto the rim their performance is quickly diminished in wet / muddy conditions. That's why most MTB's have moved towards mechanical discs low end or hydraulic brake mid+. Don't be put off by V's they are more serviceable and up to the job for 99.9% of people.
Most of the money on this bike is in the frame and fork. The project 2 is arguably just about the best rigid fork ever made, direct light and forgiving.

What makes this so much better than a no brand bike? Same tourney gearing, tourney freewheel rear wheel. All looks very basic. You can get better for your money from Decathlon or even Halfords own brands. It's like your paying about £70 just for the Kona brand. I've got 3 Kona bikes but this one looks total crap.

Because there's quite a lot of engineering that goes into a bike frame. Slapping together a few bits of aluminium pipe, you're likely to end up with odd geometry, unnecessary weight, flex where you don't want it and/or an overly stiff vibrating ride. All of which tires you out quicker than a good frame and makes it less enjoyable to ride. Yes, you are playing a little for a brand name, but we're not talking handbags here.
