Beelink has just announced an update to its product lineup with the launch of three new products: the EQ mini, EQi, and ME Pro-2, all featuring the Intel Core i3-N305 processor.
This is an upgrade in specifications compared to existing models. These devices stand out for their minimalist design and the inclusion of UFS 3.1 storage for the OS, which is uncommon in mini PCs. Notable features include support for multiple displays, DDR5 memory options in the high-end models, fast wireless connectivity, and 10GbE Ethernet ports to ensure the best user experience on networks.
Interesting solutions for those looking for a compact media center or a high-performance workstation for office work, light design apps, or a 24/365 server.
Technical specifications of the EQ mini, EQi, and ME Pro
At the heart of the entry-level and mid-range lineup is the Intel Core i3-N305 processor, manufactured on a 10nm process (Intel 7). This chip features 8 cores (E-cores) and 8 threads, capable of reaching 3.8 GHz in turbo mode. For graphics, the processor relies on an integrated Intel Core UHD Graphics GPU with 32 execution units, sufficient to accelerate modern video codecs like AV1 and handle 4K content at 60fps effortlessly.
For office work, we have the EQ mini with a compact design and very low power consumption. With the EQi version, we have higher power consumption that will squeeze more performance out of the processor and support a greater number of workstations. For file servers, we have the ME Pro-2, which we’ve previously seen with the Intel N150, it can accommodate drives with up to 62 TB of storage.
Price and availability
- These new Beelink EQ mini, EQi, and ME Pro-2 models will be available for purchase soon on Amazon, we expect to have them in various configurations or as barebones by 2027.
