Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Sony TX55 is significantly lighter (38g ) than the Sony TX100V which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX55 nor Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX100V 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
Sony TX100V's 3.50" LCD screen is slightly larger than Sony TX55's 3.3" screen.
