Size and weight are big decision factors when you are trying to find the ideal camera for your needs.
In this section, we are going to illustrate the Canon G7 X and Sony WX150 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Canon G7 X has external dimensions of 103 x 60 x 40 mm (4.06 x 2.36 x 1.57″) and weighs 304 g (0.67 lb / 10.72 oz) (including batteries).

Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Sony WX150 is significantly lighter (171g ) than the Canon G7 X which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Canon PowerShot G7 X nor Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX150 provides any type of weather sealing in their bodies, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors.

LCD Screen Size and Features
Canon G7 X and Sony WX150's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Canon G7 X features a
Tilting screen where you can change the angle of the screen to make it easier to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels whereas the Sony WX150 has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to G7 X.
