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 Nikon B700 and Samsung NX30 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Nikon B700 has external dimensions of 125 x 85 x 107 mm (4.92 x 3.35 x 4.21″) and weighs 565 g (1.25 lb / 19.93 oz) (including batteries). Samsung NX30 has external dimensions of 127 x 96 x 58 mm (5 x 3.78 x 2.28″) and weighs 375 g (0.83 lb / 13.23 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Nikon B700 and the Samsung NX30. Nikon B700 is 2mm narrower and 11mm shorter than Samsung NX30 but it is also 49mm thicker. As you can tell, actually this is not a fair size comparison since Nikon B700 has a built-in lens but Samsung NX30 doesn't. Once you put a lens on NX30, its thickness will increase significantly.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Nikon B700 and Samsung NX30.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Nikon B700 and Samsung NX30.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Samsung NX30 is significantly lighter (190g ) than the Nikon B700 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 NX30, the total kit will weigh much higher.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Nikon Coolpix B700 nor Samsung NX30 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
Nikon B700 and Samsung NX30's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
Both cameras feature
Fully Articulating screens where you can change the angle of the screen to make it easier to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels. Fully articulating screens are also useful for taking Selfies and video.
