Beelink SEi13 Pro launches as new mini PC with built-in speakers and 32 GB of RAM
Beelink has introduced a new mini PC, the SEi13 Pro. Compared to the predecessor, which can be configured with up to a Core i7-1260P, the new system brings the more capable Intel Core i9-13900HK, and per our synthetic benchmarks, there should be about at least a 5.4% overall performance uplift.
Unlike some of the other recently launched mini PCs, the SEi13 Pro doesn't feature an OCuLink port. It doesn't have a USB4 port either, so eGPU support is pretty much out of the question. However, Beelink highlights that the Iris Xe Graphics G7 iGPU of the mini PC can handle light graphical workloads.
Another highlight of the new SEi13 Pro is the built-in speakers. Beelink claims that the dual-speaker setup of the mini PC can deliver "full-bodied" sound, which could make the system a good pick for workspaces with limited space for external speakers.
The Beelink SEi13 Pro also features a built-in microphone, and the MSC2.0 cooling system is claimed to be quiet enough for near-silent operation. Now, while the system doesn't have OCuLink or USB4 ports, the port selection is quite decent. The mini PC has:
- 2x 10 Gbps USB-C
- 3x 10 Gbps USB 3.2 Type-A
- 2x 3.5 mm audio
- 1x USB 2.0 Type-A
- 1x 2.5G Ethernet
- 1x DisplayPort 1.4
- 1x HDMI
Among the other notable aspects of the mini PC are 32 GB of LPDDR5 RAM running at dual-channel, support for up to 8 TB of PCIe 4.0 storage (4 TB Samsung 990 Pro curr. $279.99 on Amazon), Bluetooth 5.2, and WiFi 6. The launch price of the Beelink SEi13 Pro is $539, and it's available on the official website.
