I definitely don't like losing the rear wheel n all those buttons. On screen buttons / menu diving aren't my thing.. hmm

This camera is too small to have all the buttons. The G9X is going to be for people who want a 1 inch sensor in a tiny pocket camera. G9X weighs about 25% less than a G7X.

Yea that's what I dont understand. The camera is 2mm narrower (98mm vs 100.2mm) than the S120 which has a rear wheel (5 buttons) and 4 additional buttons, both have a 3" touchscreen lcd, yet this only has 4 buttons? I just find it kind of backwards, that's all.
