Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Canon G7 X MII is significantly lighter (414g ) than the Canon G3 X which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
With its weather-sealed body, we believe that the G3 X has a big advantage over the G7 X MII which doesn't provide any kind of environmental sealing.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Canon G3 X's 3.20" LCD screen is slightly larger than Canon G7 X MII's 3 screen.
Both cameras feature
Tilting screens where you can change the angle of the screen to make it easier to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels.
