You can get an M1 Air for like 300 used. For 800 you should be able to get an M3 with warranty. Either one is a faster CPU than the 5900HS in single threaded perf and the M3 is faster in multi as well.

I just don't see the value proposition of the G14. But that's because I have a desktop so the GPU on a laptop is useless for me. Like I said in a previous comment, economics change if you have use for a GPU.
