The buyer's guide on Macrumors says "Don't buy", but I actually couldn't find anything remotely specific (apart from possible 10th gen intel CPU) about what will be in the update, or even an approximate release date rumored. Does anyone have anything more specific?
 
I still can’t decide if I pull the trigger for the 16” .Apple didn’t use the 10th series when they could and now 11th wont have i9 CPUs untill 2021.
 
With the new tigerlake announcement and 5600M upgrade on MBP 16" this year it seems like the next MBP 16" will be based on Apple Silicon. Hence, if you need x86-64 chipset the current MBP 16" is the best bet for now.

Apple Silicon is coming to all macs. It is hard to tell someone to buy with this change coming in next year or so.
