@milvus_migrans_govinda i7 is compatible, but pointless. it only offers about 10% performance boost, yet those models cost about twice as much online. better go with the i5-8250u model, it's the best value for money in my opinion. that's the one i sell. i can do i7 but they're super rare and i'll probably start charging extra for those from now on (i've been basically banking on a few of them being i7, in big batches that i buy, rather than buying them specifically, where the latter costs more)
