Canon lover switched to RX-100, and it was terrible! Need advice....

If you don't like the camera, you don't like the camera and you needn't justify your opinion to anyone.

May I suggest that you look at some of the following: the Canon G1X, the Canon G15, the Canon G12, and two cameras that will be available in a month or so: the Nikon V2, and the Fuji X20. Each has desirable features that may appeal to you.

Hope this helps,
