Hi everyone, was hoping I could get some opinions from the community.

I was using a 13 inch 2016 NTBMBP for the last 6 months or so. It was great, loved it. I had the opportunity to "step up" to a 13 inch 2016 TBMBP. I quickly sold my non touch and grabbed the touch bar. Have to say after the first few days the touch hasn't seemed that useful to me.

Regardless, can anyone give me their opinions on battery life between the 2 models? I've noticed the battery on the touch bar dies quicker but I think that must be just because of indexing and the fact that I might need a few cycles to get it going.

They both advertise up to 10 hours and I was very happy with my non touch's battery life. Does the touch bar equal that?

TY in advance!
