Rebel T7i and EOS 800D are the exact same camera. Just a different name because Canon marketing department like to confuse people. Former is name in North America, the latter in most of the rest of the world.
yes, these are american vs european naming...bu just 1 usb id.
it is only the brandname, everything else is the same
