Size and weight are big decision factors when you are trying to find the ideal camera for your needs.

Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Sony WX80 is 15g lighter than the Sony WX9 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX9 nor Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX80 provides any type of weather sealing in their bodies, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors. If weather sealing is a must-have feature for you, check these sections: Top Compact Cameras with Weather Sealing
LCD Screen Size and Features
Sony WX9's 3.00" LCD screen is slightly larger than Sony WX80's 2.7" screen.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
