Unless they clearly say so, assume the same crappy Chinese magnetic head/motor combo single integrated module as in every other cassette player these days. I wouldn’t buy it.

They do indeed specify some sort of high voltage precision motor and a copper flywheel.

Oh neat! Didn’t know this was a thing. Not something I need, but glad to know it exists.
I’d be surprised if it was anything other than the cheap mechanisms everything else gets. There’s very few companies manufacturing them and Techmoan is always on top of modern cassette systems and hasn’t brought it up. I could always be wrong, though.

It’s probably true for the head, but at least coming from Fiio there’s a good chance the rest of the system (motor, flywheel, etc) is top notch at least.
