Looks are subjective. So other than that here are some other comparisons:
This machine is also a metal build.
Unlike the g14, this has two M2 slots.
The g14 has one soldered and one open ram slot, while this has all ram soldered.
This has a fingerprint reader for Windows Hello but no IR in the camera. I believe the g14 is the opposite.
This also has USBC charging with a 140w charger. 7840 HS offers about the same performance as the 7940 HS.
This has a 76 W battery and gets about the same battery life as the g14 in most testing. Thermals are better than the Asus. There's mixed info on the availability of g-sync. Some reviews say it has it with Optimus off, others say it just doesn't have it.
The g14 has a brighter, less color accurate matte IPS display.
This has a slightly less bright glossy OLED.. which, once you use an OLED, you will never want to use an IPS again.
Lastly, you bought your g14 open box for $850. This is brand new. Let's compare new vs new. For less than $100 more than the $1050 g14 you're getting double the ram, an extra m.2 slot and a gorgeous, larger, and faster responding OLED display.

This Slim 5 has 32GB, OLED ( chance of burn in, but also way better color reproduction), better Q/C and warranty, and slightly larger screen. Not sure about battery or thermals.
I paid 850 for my G14 with 4060...and this deal is 1140 pretax. So big gap for me personally.

100W using anyone else's 20V/5A USB-C charger is fine though. I wish USB-PD 240W would hurry up already for travel purposes, not that one really needs that much power on the go

The OLED screen doesn't do g-sync / freesync. I was really tempted to place an order and find out if the offer works, but missing g-sync is rough.
Looking for some guidance on comparing this deal with a Slim 7 at Costco on sale for $1000.00
https://www.costco.com/lenovo-sli...76621.htm
Costco laptop is a 3050, but it seems to have a better display, 32gb RAM, Ryzen 9 6900HS, and all the other perks of buying from Costco.
Which one is the better deal?
Thanks in advance.
