does it come with mojave or catalina macOS? null

The new 16 inch MacBook Pro was released with Catalina. I’m pretty sure this model ships with Mojave. But no matter what, Catalina will be available with a software update.

Mine shipped with Catalina but I downgraded it to Mojave with a USB installer I created. Catalina has NO support for legacy 32-bit programs such as Microsoft Office 2011, which is still in widespread use. Office 2016 was the next release after 2011; most people haven't upgraded to the newest 2019 version yet. If you have a Mojave-eligible machine running High Sierra or older, you can download Mojave from the App Store. Then follow these instructions on Apple's website to create the USB installer: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201372. It takes about 5 minutes on a USB 3 drive. Boot/reboot the machine and hold down the OPTION key. TIP: You cannot search for or download Mojave on a Mac running a newer version of the OS because it will not show up in the App Store.

Comes with mojave, you can upgrade to catalina.
