I recently purchased a G9X II after my S100 started failing after I dropped it.   It is pretty much exactly as I expected, both pro and con.

I love the size and I'm impressed with the touch interface.  I was worried my fat fingers/thumbs wouldn't do well with the interface, but I needn't have worried.  On the other hand, I need to keep my glasses with me to read the screen more than I did with the S100.

The trade offs are as expected: 28mm on the wide end, short 3x zoom, slow lens when zoomed in, no sweep panorama, only one custom setting.   But again, I knew all this going in.

The one somewhat surprise, how big the jpg files are.  Ahh well, it's just disk space!

Simply stated ... no surprises. I'm very satisfied with it!
