Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.

Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Nikon Coolpix P7800 nor Samsung Galaxy Camera 2 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
Samsung Galaxy Camera 2's 4.80" LCD screen is slightly larger than Nikon P7800's 3 screen.
On the other hand, Nikon P7800 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. On the other hand, Samsung Galaxy Camera 2 has a fixed type screen which provides almost no flexibility in shooting positions compared to P7800.
