I'd take this over the 2024 model that should be available in 6-months. OLED would be nice to get around their persistent backlight problems, but productivity-use still burns in rapidly on the latest OLED monitor displays, and of course the 2024 model has non-upgradable RAM (16GB is the base size for 2024, and may be all that Best Buy will get you for these sales), and goes from a magnesium-aluminum alloy chassis to plain aluminum. They also needed a third fan to help the limited cooling potential in the 2024 model.
IMO, this is the machine to get in a 14-inch today. Especially with G-Helper installed to kill off Armory crate, greatly dropping the idle power usage of the machine, and providing additional "undervolting." 5GHz all-core under CPU load is possible on this G14, at 78W CPU power draw. Of course this tapers off as TDP is pulled with the GPU loaded.

Parts of me like this due to the matte screen and components and upgradability aspect, parts of me wonder if it will fail out afterwards. Having the opportunity to play a game on Steam would be fun, but it's sad the company appears to distinguish support based on purchase type. Been looking for some sort of upgrade the last 5 months or just going back to the walled garden or just keeping what I have.
Serious backlight bleed though on some of these pics, I thought the displays put in these notebooks were top tier?
Anyone have any serious component issues with the G14s? I've read reports of people just turning it on with just a white screen and nothing else. Again, seems very hit or miss.
Also, you shouldn't have to jump through hoops (escalated several times, etc.) for something that is supposedly fully covered.

What do you think about Acer? I'm looking at the Predator Helios 16 when it goes on sale. I'm also looking at a Legion 7i pro.

Price is too high for what you get, IMHO.

What would you recommend? I'm a light gamer, and I need a notebook with the number pad.
Get the Legion Pro and don't look back. Better display, build quality, thermals, and customer support. It's not even close comparing Acer and Legion's midrange-toprange stuff.
1st Unit: Open Box - Excellent. Appeared to be in good working order, thermals ran really really warm, speakers buzzed badly. I was willing to overlook all of that as just "quirks" of the machine, but then I noticed there were some hairline stress cracks and damage in the finish on the front lower lip from the prior owner so I returned. I also didn't like that ASUS only provides 90-day warranty guarantee for open box and didn't want to gamble with that (even though ASUS support is terrible anyhow).
2nd Unit: Brand New. Figured I would go with a new unit to avoid any damage and the warranty issues. Upon opening, the holes in the top of the lid were very noticeably defective near the logo area in one corner - Unevenly spaced and quite noticeable from a few feet away. I didn't even bother to turn the unit on and took it back for exchange. At Best Buy, the associate plugged it in and could not get the unit to power on, so it appears I avoided a dud unit overall.
3rd Unit: Brand New (exchanged 2nd unit). Physically perfect, thermals much better, speakers don't buzz, backlight bleed acceptable. All things seem good. However, there is trackpad rattle that is a bit annoying. Meaning if I lightly tap to select something, about 50% of the time I get an audible "tap" noise from the looseness of the trackpad, even though I didn't push hard enough to physically click the trackpad button. Apparently this is also EXTREMELY common for ASUS laptops, I'm just not used to it and it feels cheap/bad. Many people mention adding electrical tape inside the machine to fix this issue, which I shouldn't have to do for a $1,500 laptop. My other laptops (surface book 2, surface laptop, and an old alienware) have never had this issue, regardless of trackpad material or size.
Given the QC issues I've seen in a small sampling of units, I'm VERY reluctant to exchange the 3rd unit and start over since everything is basically perfect except the trackpad rattle. I may just "live with it" rather than re-roll the QC lottery a 4th time.
Edit: Example of trackpad rattle from reddit (mine is not quite this bad) -> https://www.reddit.com/r/Zephyrus...is_normal/ [reddit.com]
