It's likely the H-series variant of Tiger Lake will be 8 cores (I'm assuming they're just going to skip Ice Lake H), and it may very well be the case that AMD won't get much traction in the market before it's out (Ryzen 4xxx is the first competitive mobile AMD CPU in a long time, and IT departments are conservative), but Intel has only shown a 4-core die so far.
I rather suspect Apple is going to skip this one. Even though thermals have improved in the 16", they are already on the edge with the 9980HK. Also the model only came out in December. They'll wait for Tiger Lake.

Tiger Lake is a summer paper launch product.... Real availability is several months after.svan1971 - Thursday, April 2, 2020 - link

We're talking 45W mobile for Tiger Lake in holiday 2020, right? Not the weak 15W cpus?I'm looking out for next-gen MacBook Pro 16".

I like to think I'm gentler on Intel than a lot of tech followers, but Dadgum are they Aholes, especially with their graphs.s.yu - Friday, April 3, 2020 - link
