I look forward to seeing actual test results. benchmark scores are hard to compare without knowing how much a difference the results are.
Without being any scores, I'd predict that the new base 6-core MBP will perform at the same level as the old i9, the new mid-tier model with 8-core i9 will perform around 25-30% better than the last year's i9, and there will be no difference whatsoever between the two i9 options for the MBP.
Thanks for posting. Cinebench would also be great to see since the test takes longer and is more likely to throttle. Throttling made all three CPU options in the 2018 almost identical in performance for longer heavy tasks, so it’ll be interesting to see if that’s gotten better on this release.
Get Cinebench R20, this is a longer test, more representative of sustained loads when you'll run into thermal limits. Geekbench can be pretty much estimated from the clocks alone.
How's the new keyboard? Any difference from butterfly gen 3 that you can discern?

Some interesting disparities there.

If that's the old version of Cinebench, that doesn't look too bad, especially if accompanied by lower load temps. A run on Cinebench R20 would be interesting too.
My i7 2.6 GHz (2018) gets around 1100 on the old Cinebench. So that's about 14% improvement between the base 2018 model and 2019 second tier models. Geekbench is pretty useless IMO so I don't care much for it.

Not really....I didn't have keyboard issues with my 2017 MacBook Pro....my Cinebench score is 2930

Nice! This guy got these with a 2.6ghz 2018

"The benchmark scores here, run in balmy ambient temperature of 29C, shows improvements in scores when you limit the MacBook Pro 2018 (i7 2.6GHz) to 45W and below.
Stock - 2010
45W - 2368
40W - 2288
39W - 2246
@45W, we are looking at a 18% improvement over stock for workloads longer than 2min. Even @39W, the improvements is about 12%, with the plus side of wearing out the fans less.
For now, I have set to 39W for what I think is a good balance between performance and thermals in the hot tropics.
Curious to see what are the Cinebench r20 scores for the other variants, namely the 2016/2017 and the 2018 i7 2.2 and 2018 i9 2.9 models. Chime in your scores please! Cinebench r20 can be downloaded on Mac app store."
Thanks! That's not bad actually, I thought it is going to be worse. I'm getting 2550 on 2018 2.2, so the 2 additional cores give 15% improvement. Of course still below my other 6 core laptop - MSI GS65 that gets 2950, but I'm pretty sure I can squeeze 3k out of it.

He was getting this at 29C ambient, damn. Not really representative, should be much higher in human breathable environment.
I ran with intel power gadget and temps spike to 100c right away and hover around while cpu spikes to 4ghz and settle around 3ghz.

Wow the British guy in the video above got the 8 core and didn't see above 90C on a CPU maxout!
