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 Fujifilm X-A2 and Samsung PL120 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Fujifilm X-A2 has external dimensions of 117 x 67 x 40 mm (4.61 x 2.64 x 1.57″) and weighs 350 g (0.77 lb / 12.35 oz) (including batteries). Samsung PL120 has external dimensions of 94 x 54 x 19 mm (3.7 x 2.13 x 0.75″) and weighs (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Fujifilm X-A2 and the Samsung PL120. Samsung PL120 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 23mm narrower, 13mm shorter and 21mm thinner than Fujifilm X-A2. As you can tell, actually this is not a fair size comparison since Samsung PL120 has a built-in lens but Fujifilm X-A2 doesn't. Once you put a lens on X-A2, its thickness will increase significantly.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Fujifilm X-A2 and Samsung PL120.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Fujifilm X-A2 and Samsung PL120.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Samsung PL120 is 350g lighter than the Fujifilm X-A2 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
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 X-A2, the total kit will weigh much higher.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Fujifilm X-A2 nor Samsung PL120 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
Fujifilm X-A2's 3.00" LCD screen is slightly larger than Samsung PL120's 2.7" screen.
In addition to the size advantage, Fujifilm X-A2 LCD screen also has a
Tilting feature where you can change the angle of the screen to make it easier to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels. On the other hand, Samsung PL120 has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to X-A2.
