Upgrading APU from FS1 Socket to FS1r2?

I'm in the process of upgrading a secondary laptop of mine and the AMD A10-5750M + AMD 8650G is the only other APU I can find with an FS1r2 Socket type. I currently have an AMD A10-4600M + AMD 7660G which has an FS1 Socket type. 

I'm upgrading the ram and storage and I would really love to upgrade the APU as well so I need to know if this would work out as an upgrade from the A10-4600M to the A10-5750M. Please let me know, thanks in advance!

Good Day Sir!

The AMD site list both the AMD A10-4600M and the AMD A10-5750M as FS1r2 however everywhere else list the 4600M as FS1 and the 5750M as FS1r2?

the socket AM1 is the new name of the socket FS1b (is the same)

Processors from different sockets will not fit into other sockets. mobile processors are almost ALWAYS soldered to the board itself.
