[SOLVED] Will my i5 2520m work in my laptop which has a i3 380m?

Solution
i3 is from sony VPCEB44EA full specs link:https://www.sony-asia.com/electronics/support/laptop-pc-vpc-series/vpceb44ea/specifications
i5 is from dell latitude e6420.
Is there any thingelse that you want to know, yeah and by the way they are not soldered.
Thank you.
Usually the manufacturer give the detail for CPU option which is compatible, but I don't see in there.
But I found this, your Sony laptop running intel HM55 Express chipset.
So this is the conclusion : https://www.cpu-upgrade.com/mb-Intel_(chipsets)/HM55_Express.html ,you only can use 1st gen for your upgrade, and i5-2520M not compatible with the laptop.
What is your model laptop ? and are you make sure they are not soldered ?
i3-380M and i5-2520M have same socket, but you need confirm laptop manufacturer that you are able to upgrade to the proper processor.
I try to search sony vaio e series vpceb44ea but still can't find your full systems specification.
