Size and weight is a big decision factor when you are trying to find the ideal camera for your needs.
In this section, We are going to illustrate Canon T7 and Canon T7i side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Canon T7 has external dimensions of 129 x 101 x 78 mm (5.08 x 3.98 x 3.07″) and weighs 475 g (1.05 lb / 16.76 oz) (including batteries). Canon T7i has external dimensions of 131 x 100 x 76 mm (5.16 x 3.94 x 2.99″) and weighs 532 g (1.17 lb / 18.77 oz) (including batteries).

Weight is another important factor especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Canon T7 is 57g lighter than the Canon T7i but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Also keep in mind that body weight is not the only deciding factor when comparing two interchangeable camera bodies, you have to also take into account the lenses that you will be using with these bodies. Since both Canon T7 and Canon T7i have the same Canon EF/EF-S lens mount and APS-C sized sensors, lenses will not be a differentiator on total size of the system.

Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither Canon EOS Rebel T7 (EOS 2000D) nor Canon EOS Rebel T7i / EOS 800D / Kiss X9i provides any type of weather sealing in their body, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors. If weather sealing is a must-have feature for you, check these sections: Top DSLR Cameras with Weather Sealing
LCD Screen Size and Features
Canon T7 and Canon T7i's LCD screens has the same diagonal size of 3".
On the other hand, Canon T7i sports a
Fully Articulated screen which you can change the angle and position of the screen almost freely, making it possible to shoot from waist or over the head levels, and especially very useful for shooting selfies and video. Canon T7's LCD screen is a fixed type which provides almost no flexibility in shooting positions compared to T7i.
Both Canon T7 and Canon T7i have APS-C sized 24.0 MP resolution sensors so sensor size and resolution is not a differentiator between these two cameras.
Below you can see the T7 and T7i sensor size comparison.

Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Canon T7 and Canon T7i Cameras
Canon T7 and Canon T7i have sensor sizes so they will provide same level of control over the depth of field when used with same focal length and aperture.
Number of available lenses is a big decision factor while choosing your interchangeable lens camera. Canon T7 and Canon T7i have the same Canon EF/EF-S lens mount and currently there are 326 native lenses available for these cameras.
Another important factor is the availability of image stabilization. None of these bodies have sensor based image stabilization so you have to buy lenses with Optical stabilization feature. Currently there are 112 lenses with Image stabilization for Canon EF/EF-S mount.
