Why can’t I find HQ CPU or 8th Gen CPU laptops anywhere in the U.K.?

I’m buying a new laptop, mainly for video editing but also just to have a nice fast machine, preferably with a light gpu. I found one for a good price (£680) Which has an i7 7500u and a 950m. But I’ve heard the u stands for ultra low power consumption, so the HQ would be a better choice. But I can’t find the HQ anywhere. Also the new 8th gen has more cores so would be much more useful in editing, but yet it’s nowhere.

Anyone know of a store or a laptop that has similar specs and price to this laptop, but a HQ or 8th gen cpu?

I’d expect maybe to pay maybe 100 more, but that’s it. Also I prefer a HDD over a SSD for more storage.
