Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Samsung WB35F is significantly lighter (128g ) than the Panasonic ZS70 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Samsung WB35F nor Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS70 (Lumix DC-TZ90) 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
Panasonic ZS70's 3.00" LCD screen is slightly larger than Samsung WB35F's 2.7" screen.
In addition to the size advantage, Panasonic ZS70 LCD screen also has a
Tilting feature where you can change the angle of the screen to make it easier to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels. On the other hand, Samsung WB35F has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to ZS70.
