the OEM Mini sensors I just bought for my daughter's car are also 433 mHz. And yes, the battery is non-replaceable. I have all our car's tires done at a local Discount Tire place, they are exceedingly careful with my wheels and tires. Having a relationship with a tire place is as important as having a relationship with one's physician. It helps.

Just ordered a set of 4 Huf (OE manufacturer) with valve stems for $335 from this place.

I would opt for the Huf Beru's over the EON's or Oro TEc's. Was told by a representative that they have had a few issues with the non OEM's on the Euro cars. They sync up then lose connection a month or so laterlater. In addition, the OEM's last longer and have a 3 year warranty.
I would hate to order the non oem tpms and have them go bad prematurely. It's just another cost to RR the tire even if the non oem ones have a warranty.

If you check your tire pressure frequently just code them out and be done with it all.
If you want to keep them there was a thread about an aftermarket company that makes sensors for much cheaper than OEM. I think they were $150 for a set of 4 then you'll have 40-80 in labor to break the beads and install the new sensors.
