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 Samsung Galaxy Camera 4G and Canon 1100D side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Samsung Galaxy Camera 4G has external dimensions of 129 x 71 x 19 mm (5.08 x 2.8 x 0.75″) and weighs 305 g (0.67 lb / 10.76 oz) (including batteries). Canon 1100D has external dimensions of 130 x 100 x 78 mm (5.12 x 3.94 x 3.07″) and weighs 495 g (1.09 lb / 17.46 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Samsung Galaxy Camera 4G and the Canon 1100D. Samsung Galaxy Camera 4G is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 1mm narrower, 29mm shorter and 59mm thinner than Canon 1100D. As you can tell, actually this is not a fair size comparison since Samsung Galaxy Camera 4G has a built-in lens but Canon 1100D doesn't. Once you put a lens on 1100D, its thickness will increase significantly.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Samsung Galaxy Camera 4G and Canon 1100D.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Samsung Galaxy Camera 4G is significantly lighter (190g ) than the Canon 1100D 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 1100D, the total kit will weigh much higher.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Samsung Galaxy Camera 4G nor Canon EOS 1100D (EOS Rebel T3 / EOS Kiss X50) 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 4G's 4.80" LCD screen is slightly larger than Canon 1100D's 2.7" screen.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
