They want at least 150 for that extra memory
You wish. They want $410 to get to 32gb.

This series of processors are really the sweet spot for the vast majority of users. I have a 226v i5 in a similar VivoBook and that thing absolutely chews through all kinds of things while the fan makes barely a whisper. IMO, unless you have a specific workstation task (AI, CAD, Blender, etc.), this is a very solid choice.
I generally prefer AMD, but they can't keep up with QuickSync in terms of efficiency or quality of en/trans/decoding and Intel knocked this series out of the park for "mainstream ++" usage. AMD will win (by a lot) for straight-up benchmark and performance numbers. (A lot of high-performance AMD laptop implantations run with fans at max and the laptop physically uncomfortable to hold/touch, just like older Intel designs.)
Oh, and you can turn off the RBG or set the color for the keyboard in windows "advanced lighting".
Note that this is for BRAND NEW. It is not an open box deal. The price is similar to previous open-box deals, though.

EDIT: Oh come on. I literally searched for Zenbook s14 and it only showed expired deals before I posted, lol.
Too bad, I like my current Zenbook but it's getting old. And it's 8gb soldered. If I could just get the ram upgraded on that I would keep it another 5 years. But nope.
