I noticed the G5X has a different charging cord, but I had a few of them from other devices like phone chargers, pads etc.

I supose it is a small niggle but still one has to wonder why.

I was hoping Canon would have improved the lens design this time along with the stabilization. I guess not.

I believe the stabilization has been improved as they indicate a 5 x improvement.  Much needed with that long zoom.

No hot shoe, big mistake for me.

For sure.

I asked others if the 20 megapixel sensor was an improvement, but no definitive response so far.

With the very tiny sensor I doubt its value except for bragging rights.
