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 Sony A6400 and Samsung Galaxy NX side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Sony A6400 has external dimensions of 120 x 67 x 60 mm (4.72 x 2.64 x 2.36″) and weighs 403 g (0.89 lb / 14.22 oz) (including batteries). Samsung Galaxy NX has external dimensions of 137 x 101 x 26 mm (5.39 x 3.98 x 1.02″) and weighs 495 g (1.09 lb / 17.46 oz) (including batteries).

Here is the back view size comparison of the Sony A6400 and Samsung Galaxy NX.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Sony A6400 and Samsung Galaxy NX.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Sony A6400 is significantly lighter (92g ) than the Samsung Galaxy NX which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Also keep in mind that body weight is not the only deciding factor when comparing two interchangeable camera bodies, you also have to take into account the lenses that you will be using with these bodies. Since both Sony A6400 and Samsung Galaxy NX have the same APS-C sized sensor, their lenses for a similar focal length and aperture will be similar in size and weight.
Weather Sealing
With its weather-sealed body, we believe that the A6400 has a big advantage over the Galaxy NX which doesn't provide any kind of environmental sealing.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Samsung Galaxy NX's 4.80" LCD screen is slightly larger than Sony A6400's 3 screen.
On the other hand, Sony A6400 LCD screen 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 Galaxy NX has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to A6400.
