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 WB800F and Canon G9 X side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Samsung WB800F has external dimensions of 111 x 65 x 22 mm (4.37 x 2.56 x 0.87″) and weighs 218 g (0.48 lb / 7.69 oz) (including batteries). Canon G9 X has external dimensions of 98 x 58 x 31 mm (3.86 x 2.28 x 1.21″) and weighs 209 g (0.46 lb / 7.37 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Samsung WB800F and the Canon G9 X. Canon G9 X is 13mm narrower and 7mm shorter than Samsung WB800F but it is also 9mm thicker.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Samsung WB800F and Canon G9 X.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Samsung WB800F and Canon G9 X.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Canon G9 X is 9g lighter than the Samsung WB800F but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Samsung WB800F nor Canon PowerShot G9 X 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 WB800F and Canon G9 X's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
