iMore Question

I am planning to buy new MacBook Pro 2016.
I am intermediate user of laptop. I will primarily use it for normal tasks and will run softwares like... MS Office,MATLAB,Latex, photoshop, Lightroom and sometimes video editing.
I don't care about touchbar drama. I need good battery life.
But I am confused between this option.
MacBook Pro without touch bar i5- 2.0 GHz/16GB/512GB
Or
MacBook Pro with touch bar i5-2.7GHz/8GB/512GB.
Please give your feedback.
