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 Ricoh CX6 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). Ricoh CX6 has external dimensions of 104 x 59 x 29 mm (4.09 x 2.32 x 1.14″) and weighs 201 g (0.44 lb / 7.09 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Samsung TL225 and the Ricoh CX6. Samsung TL225 is 4mm narrower and 10mm thinner than Ricoh CX6 but it is also 1mm taller.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Samsung TL225 and Ricoh CX6.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Samsung TL225 and Ricoh CX6.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Samsung TL225 is 14g lighter than the Ricoh CX6 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Samsung TL225 (ST550) nor Ricoh CX6 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 TL225's 3.50" LCD screen is slightly larger than Ricoh CX6's 3" screen.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
