Can confirm on PC. Although, since currently beacons don't have a specific tool assigned to them in order for them to be broken, this technically "should" be considered as working as intended.
BUT! this isn't an issue exclusive to beacons however, as this also affects other glass-like blocks such as glowstone, glass, redstone lamps, etc. Over on the java side of things, mainly reports such as MC-171534 and MC-11992, both recognize the fact that these blocks aren't assigned a particular item (like a pickaxe) nor that they're affected by efficiency, which both affect the mining rate of these blocks.
Interestingly enough, the closest report i saw regarding this issue on here on bedrock was MCPE-138700, which contradicts a lot of what I've just said about it being recognized as an actual bug on java.
