Weight is another important factor especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Casio TRYX is 150g lighter than the Panasonic FX48 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX48 (Lumix DMC-FX40) nor Casio Exilim TRYX provides any type of weather sealing in their body, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors.

LCD Screen Size and Features
Casio TRYX's 3" LCD screen is slightly larger than Panasonic FX48's 2.5" screen.
Moreover, Casio TRYX 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, Panasonic FX48 has a fixed type screen which provides almost no flexibility in shooting positions compared to TRYX.
