Quality wise, yes OLED is far better and these new Samsung made E4 OLEDs have very good blue light filter which reduces strain to your eyes. However, almost all OLED displays in laptop use PWM to control the brightness which might cause some issues with people sensitive to that. This one, use PWM below 60% brightness and the frequency is 60Hz. So, below that brightness, if you're sensitive to PWM, it may cause headache.

Photo editing, it is okay. Not much suitable for 4K video editing or even higher end 1080p editing as it doesn't have dedicated GPU.

This review had information about a similar model with the same screen: https://www.notebookche
The good news is the display is very good, with one caveat being that it utilizes low frequency PWM for dimming, so people who are sensitive to that should look elsewhere.
Bad news is that despite a lot of ports, the ports they chose are not very good: USB-A 2.0 instead of 3.0, USB-C without Power Delivery or DisplayPort, and HDMI 1.4 instead of 2.0.
In part, the rarity of OLED laptops allows ASUS to set their price points/tier whereas LG has to "earn" its price premium over similarly equipped laptops that might cost $100 less (or more!). Put another way, you could get the LG's specs in a cheaper laptop (and which is by extension true of the ASUS since they're the same) but you aren't going to find that OLED screen in any other laptops at this price point (with Samsung being the closest competition).
Good luck!

I'll try this out to see if can improve my streaming entertainment, i.e. is it calibrated well? Yes, I know Pantone...

You cant go wrong either way, but the Vivobook with the oled is more of a PC for media consumption, photo editing, etc. While the LG gram is like a traveling/commute/school laptop, you buy it for mobile use, because of both the lightweight and long battery (something like 21hrs of mixed use)
