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 160 and Canon IXUS 165 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Canon 160 has external dimensions of 95 x 54 x 22 mm (3.74 x 2.13 x 0.87″) and weighs 127 g (0.28 lb / 4.48 oz) (including batteries). Canon IXUS 165 has external dimensions of 95 x 54 x 22 mm (3.74 x 2.13 x 0.87″) and weighs 128 g (0.28 lb / 4.52 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Canon 160 and the Canon IXUS 165. In this case, we can see that Canon 160 and Canon IXUS 165 have the exact same height, width and thickness.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Canon 160 and Canon IXUS 165.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Canon 160 and Canon IXUS 165.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Canon 160 is 1g lighter than the Canon IXUS 165 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Canon PowerShot ELPH 160 (IXUS 160) nor Canon IXUS 165 provides any type of weather sealing in their bodies, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors.

Canon 160 and Canon IXUS 165's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 2.70 inches.
