All in all, the two cameras provide the same sensor dimensions albeit different MP. You should expect the Canon T7i to produce greater detail as a result of its extra 8 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop pictures more aggressively. The newer T7i should have an advantage when it comes to sensor tech.
