Beelink will soon be launching a new mini PC in the market, which will be the company’s first with an Intel 12th-gen Alder Lake-U CPU. The model will be called the Beelink SEi12, so let’s take a look at the specifications in detail.

The SEi12 model, which replaces the earlier SEi11 series using 11th-generation Intel CPUs, is currently in development. A Kingston PCIe4 x4 NVMe SSD and Wi-Fi 6 support are included with the Core i5-1235U in the initial SKUs. The chassis, however, will be the first to include felt cloth on the top surface rather than the customary glossy or matte plastic.

Performance-wise, we can expect the Core i5-1235U to perform similarly to the 11th gen Core i7-1165G7. In terms of port options and overall dimensions, the chassis appears to be identical to the current SEi11. Beelink small PCs are positioned as significantly less expensive substitutes for the standard Intel NUC models, which frequently lack storage, RAM, and even an operating system.

The Core i5-1235U SEi12 with 16 GB of RAM, a 500 GB NVMe SSD, and a Windows 11 license will start arriving on October 26 for just $459 USD.
