15.6 i9 Creator benefits over this 14.5 i7 Zenbook:
i9-13900H (vs i7-13700H)
RX3050 (noticeably better than an Iris Xe), although neither is enough for gaming, but this is not a gaming laptop)
1 TB SSD (vs 512GB SSD)
RAM on the Creator is upgradeable to 40GB for about $83 - $90 (by adding a 32GB SODIMM to the 8GB of soldered RAM). The Zenbook supports only 16GB which may be fine for most, but just calling it out for those who want more RAM.
(The Creator may even support 56GB).
Battery life on the Creator is better than I expected given complaints, but still going to try the Lenovo Z16 32GB due to its amazing battery life, sleek looks and build quality and that Lenovo keyboard I loved on both my prior ThinkPads.
If the Zenbook has better battery life than the Creator, then that could be a major deciding factor in favor of the Zenbook
I need a 15.6 - 16" laptop and 32GB+ of RAM, so for me it will either be the Creator (which I own) or the Z16 32GB laptop which is on the way.

I wouldn't buy the $49 membership just for this one purchase if you don't think you'll ever buy more.

The only issue is build quality relative to a MacBook Pro (what my girlfriend was originally considering but that was $2100+) but definitely very good for $700.

Other then that, the laptop is great. I got open box good a month ago and it was in great condition.
While 16gb is good for most, it doesn't suite all users needs. This model is a good deal. Make sure you will be comfortable purchasing this laptop (or others) that have their ram soldered to the mobo. As these are not upgradable.
So plan ahead, and shoot for a little more even if you don't think you will need it. Better to have it and know you have an extra buffer if needed.
My 2 cents.
