Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Nikon S2900 is significantly lighter (28g ) than the Canon ELPH 360 HS which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Canon PowerShot ELPH 360 HS nor Nikon Coolpix S2900 provides any type of weather sealing in their bodies, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors.

Canon ELPH 360 HS's 3.00" LCD screen is slightly larger than Nikon S2900's 2.7 screen.
