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 MIII and Canon M50 II side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Canon G7 X MIII has external dimensions of 105 x 61 x 41 mm (4.13 x 2.4 x 1.61″) and weighs 304 g (0.67 lb / 10.72 oz) (including batteries). Canon M50 II has external dimensions of 116 x 88 x 59 mm (4.57 x 3.46 x 2.32″) and weighs 387 g (0.85 lb / 13.65 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Canon G7 X MIII and the Canon M50 II. Canon G7 X MIII is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 11mm narrower, 27mm shorter and 18mm thinner than Canon M50 II. As you can tell, actually this is not a fair size comparison since Canon G7 X MIII has a built-in lens but Canon M50 II doesn't. Once you put a lens on M50 Mark II, its thickness will increase significantly.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Canon G7 X MIII and Canon M50 II.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Canon G7 X MIII and Canon M50 II.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Canon G7 X MIII is significantly lighter (83g ) than the Canon M50 II which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Again, this comparison may not be very useful in real life as we are comparing the weight of a camera with a built-in lens to the body-only weight of an interchangeable lens camera. Once you put a lens on M50 Mark II, the total kit will weigh much higher.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark III nor Canon EOS M50 Mark II 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 MIII and Canon M50 II's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
Canon G7 X MIII features a
Tilting-only screen which is mostly only good for shooting from waist or over-the-head levels. On the other hand, Canon M50 II sports a
Fully Articulated screen which is more flexible and useful, especially for taking selfies and video.
