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 TL225 and Nikon AW100 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Samsung TL225 has external dimensions of 100 x 60 x 19 mm (3.94 x 2.36 x 0.75″) and weighs 187 g (0.41 lb / 6.60 oz) (including batteries). Nikon AW100 has external dimensions of 110 x 65 x 23 mm (4.33 x 2.56 x 0.91″) and weighs 178 g (0.39 lb / 6.28 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Samsung TL225 and the Nikon AW100. Samsung TL225 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 10mm narrower, 5mm shorter and 4mm thinner than Nikon AW100.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Samsung TL225 and Nikon AW100.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Nikon AW100 is 9g lighter than the Samsung TL225 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Thanks to the weather-sealed body of the AW100, you can use this camera with more confidence under conditions where there is risk of exposure to water and dust compared to the TL225.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Samsung TL225's 3.50" LCD screen is slightly larger than Nikon AW100's 3" screen.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
