I was disappointed with the MBP 2016 announcement especially because I was looking to replace my 2008 Macbook and was eager to buy, but then I thought about it and the disappointment was only related to the pricing and the touch bar. The touch bar annoyed me both in theory and in actual use for about 30 mins at the Apple store.
The one without touchbar has a worse processor but the benchmarks show the difference is not significant, it's also a more efficient processor, combined with a bigger battery and my dislike of the touch bar it became a no-brainer so I ordered one configured with 16 GB recently and I receive it next week. I am so excited, I'm changing from 2008 tech to 2016, the display is amazing, I have never had a retina display before. Happy to hear you think its the best laptop you have ever used. I upgraded my old Macbook several types from 2 GB to 4 GB to 8 GB , HDD to SDD, battery, but clearly no models allow that anymore so I had no choice in that respect.
