I know theres different chipsets in there, but what are some of the general differences? Is the i7 usually more powerful?

Watch out for the i5 vs i7 data out there. A lot of the differences are for the desktop version of the chips. If you look at the available laptop versions - it looks like it is clock speed and L3 Cache is the biggest difference.
