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 X100T and Leica X-U side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Fujifilm X100T has external dimensions of 127 x 74 x 52 mm (5 x 2.91 x 2.05″) and weighs 440 g (0.97 lb / 15.52 oz) (including batteries). Leica X-U has external dimensions of 140 x 79 x 88 mm (5.51 x 3.11 x 3.46″) and weighs 635 g (1.40 lb / 22.40 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Fujifilm X100T and the Leica X-U. Fujifilm X100T is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 13mm narrower, 5mm shorter and 36mm thinner than Leica X-U.

Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Fujifilm X100T is significantly lighter (195g ) than the Leica X-U which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Thanks to the weather-sealed body of the X-U, you can use this camera with more confidence under conditions where there is risk of exposure to water and dust compared to the X100T.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Fujifilm X100T and Leica X-U's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Leica X-U sports a
Fully Articulated screen which you can change the angle and position of the screen almost freely, making it possible to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels, and especially very useful for shooting selfies and video. Fujifilm X100T's LCD screen is a fixed type which provides almost no flexibility in shooting positions compared to X-U.
