At first I was kinda bummed I could have saved a hundy. I would have been pretty OK with this Vivobook 14. But as I dug deeper I found the differences and not just that the Zenbook is slimmer and sexier.
OLED on Vivobook is not touchscreen
CPU on Vivobook is ultra 7 258v, 8c/8t max 4.8ghz
CPU on Zenbbok is ultra 9 285H, 16c/16t max 5.2ghz
iGPU on both are ARC 140T and are similar, but the 285H is higher bandwidth, speed, and GPU TOPS
So there is nothing WRONG with the Vivobook, but I don't feel so bad now spending $100 more . Plus it is SO SEXY with the metal case. The Vivobook is very plastic-y.
But compared to these current prices, 799 vs 1299, I'd get the Vivobook. No touchscreen displeases the wife however. Weight is about the same, the Zenbook might be 2 ounces lighter, no big.
edit - have since been informed that the Vivobook is not plastic-y , was basing off product photos
iGPU on Vivobook is ARC 140V, not 140T (not that they are much different, but still...)
The Vivobook has a microSD card reader, the Zenbook does not.
The Vivobook is all metal, and doesn't feel plastic-y at all.
The Vivobook has better battery life.
The Ultra 9 285H in the Zenbook you mention throttles quite a bit.
It's possible to get the Core Ultra 5 version of this Vivobook for significantly less when it goes on sale. I picked up mine for $359.99 from Best Buy. Battery life is insanely good (better than the Core Ultra 7), and the Series 2 Ultra 5 is only about 10-15% behind in performance vs the Series 2 Ultra 7 such as is found in the Vivobook being considered here. I don't see this as a such a great deal.

the build quality is very nice, and the fan noise is very minimal.

My biggest gripe is the glossy display. Every single laptop I've had so far was matte, and I would give up the OLED in a heartbeat to go back to matte. Glossy is just an incomparably worse user experience; tilting the display this way and that to minimize reflections has become an everyday thing.
