Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Samsung NX mini is significantly lighter (257g ) than the Sony A6500 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.

Since Sony A6500 has an APS-C sized sensor and Samsung NX mini has a smaller 1' sensor, Samsung NX mini's lenses for a similar focal length and aperture will generally be lighter and smaller than the Sony A6500 lenses.
