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 S9900 and Samsung Galaxy Camera 2 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Nikon S9900 has external dimensions of 112 x 66 x 40 mm (4.41 x 2.6 x 1.57″) and weighs 289 g (0.64 lb / 10.19 oz) (including batteries). Samsung Galaxy Camera 2 has external dimensions of 133 x 71 x 19 mm (5.24 x 2.8 x 0.75″) and weighs 283 g (0.62 lb / 9.98 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Nikon S9900 and the Samsung Galaxy Camera 2. Nikon S9900 is 21mm narrower and 5mm shorter than Samsung Galaxy Camera 2 but it is also 21mm thicker.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Nikon S9900 and Samsung Galaxy Camera 2.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Nikon S9900 and Samsung Galaxy Camera 2.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Samsung Galaxy Camera 2 is 6g lighter than the Nikon S9900 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Nikon Coolpix S9900 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 S9900's 3 screen.
On the other hand, Nikon S9900 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 S9900.
