Asus Zenbook 14 vs. Lenovo Yoga 9i 2-in-1 Aura Edition?

Both of these are on sale this weekend and looking to purchase a laptop. I found the Yoga 9i on the Lenovo website for \~$1400 and the Asus Zenbook for $1100 on another website. Yoga 9i has 16GB RAM and 512GB SSD with an Intel Core 7 256V while the Zenbook has 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD, and an Intel Evo Core i9 2.6 GHZ. Also willing to be convinced of another laptop.
