Some comparison info in this post:

Might I say that the evf and integrated flash of both models are the same. Others on the list are true.

The popup flash mechanisms differ a bit, but the review of the GX85 here on DPR does say that it can be directed at the ceiling, so you are apparently correct on that.

The EVF panels may be identical, but several here have written that they find a difference in EVF use between the two cameras, with the EVF of the GX85 less pleasant to use, perhaps because of poorer optics in front of the EVF panel.  I haven't used a GX85 so I can't say, but the comment has been made here by folks who usually seem to be discerning and careful.
