I'm confused because the title of the article states: "...USB 3.2 Gen 1..." which, at least to me, would indicated a 5Gbps capability, but then in the body of the article it cites a "1000MB/s" [megaBYTES] transfer speed which necessitates a USB 3.2 Gen 2 capability, and refers to "USB 3.2 Gen 2 x1". I'm really confused as to what the "x1" means after the "USB 3.2 Gen 2..."....

I believe it refers to the connection type on either end.
Type A one end, Type C the other.

Many mid range and above motherboards for PCs(last 3 generations atleast) come with USB A ports capable of 10Gbps link while for laptops even USB C ports need to be checked for speeds. Also there will be a single controller on the drive so it should be 10Gbps USB irrespective of port used.

These devices are beginning to be held back by transfer speeds. At 1,000MB/s, it takes about 15 minutes to read the whole drive.
It's uber-nice to have all that storage capacity in your pocket, it just ends up not as practical as you'd expect.

How is it different from a portable harddrive which have been around in TB sizes for over a decade

It's different because a HDD physically can't reach those speeds, so no expectations there. NAND flash can, but in this instance it's held back by the chosen interface.
