Is the OLED screen worth it on this laptop?

Yes if you care about contrast and color. The 2560 x 1600 OLED is the main reason to pick this model over a standard LCD OMEN 16.

Can it run modern games at 2560 x 1600?

It can, but expect to lower settings or use upscaling in the newest titles. The NVIDIA GPU is better suited to high frame rates at 1080p or 1440p.

How heavy is it to carry?

5.5 lb before the charger. That is fine between rooms but noticeable in a backpack every day.

Is 16 GB of RAM enough?

For gaming and normal browsing, yes. For heavy video editing or many virtual machines, 32 GB would be safer, so check whether the RAM is upgradeable on the exact configuration.

What comes in the box?

The laptop and its power adapter. A mouse and headset are not included.
