Currently have a late-2013 rMBP i5 8gb 256gb. Will be selling and putting towards the 2016.
Reasons I'm going 2016 nTB i5 8gb 256gb:
- Battery life (larger battery, less power draw from processor, no TB to power as compared to TB model)
- Love the design and feel
- Display is fantastic
- Ports/new cables not important to me (although MagSafe will be missed...)
- Geekbench score for 2016 MBP is better than my current MBP despite lesser-clocked processor
- Better speakers (I use this often)
- Can still get great resale value from current Mac (near mint condition, it will only depreciate more as I wait)
