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 L31 and Samsung TL320 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Nikon L31 has external dimensions of 96 x 59 x 29 mm (3.78 x 2.32 x 1.14″) and weighs 160 g (0.35 lb / 5.64 oz) (including batteries). Samsung TL320 has external dimensions of 97 x 61 x 21 mm (3.82 x 2.4 x 0.83″) and weighs (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Nikon L31 and the Samsung TL320. Nikon L31 is 1mm narrower and 2mm shorter than Samsung TL320 but it is also 8mm thicker.

Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Samsung TL320 is 160g lighter than the Nikon L31 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Nikon Coolpix L31 nor Samsung TL320 (WB1000) provides any type of weather sealing in their bodies, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors. If weather sealing is a must-have feature for you, check these sections: Top Compact Cameras with Weather Sealing
LCD Screen Size and Features
Samsung TL320's 3.00" LCD screen is slightly larger than Nikon L31's 2.7" screen.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
