Here we are comparing two cameras with different body types: Canon G7 X MIII, which was introduced in July 2019 is a Large sensor compact camera with a 20.0MP 1″ sensor whereas Sony RX10 IV, which was introduced in September 2017 is a Large Sensor Superzoom camera with a 20.0MP 1″ sensor. There is 22 months difference between G7 X MIII and RX10 IV so we don't expect to see a huge technology difference between these two cameras but it would still give an advantage to younger G7 X MIII, especially in sensor tech.
