I got the Core i7 SP 9 over black friday. Certified refurb. $940. Seemed like a smash deal. Arrived near brand new - only 2 battery cycles. Mint condition.
And boy was it a massive disappointment. Day to day performance wise it made no significant and notable improvement over my SP7 Core i5. But that battery life, god awful. 5 hours max. Utterly outrageous - my SP7+ lasted 7 hours brand new, and still does 5 hours after overusing it.
This just goes to show how poor Intel have been the last 2-3 generations (or more). I promptly returned the device and am holding out hope the Meteor Lake refresh (likely coming in May) is a change. If not, I'm swearing off win-tel for a while and getting a Macbook Air.
Intel really needs to get its act together!
As far as I understand i7 isnt necessary, for this generation the i5 and i7 are nearly identical in performance.
Also, if you're not in a rush i would wait for Sp10 this year.

I'm personally waiting for the Pro 10 with the new Intel processors to see whether it's delivering the gains that are expected after I returned my SP 9 I bought over the holidays.
