Where to upgrade from RX100M4

I have been using RX100 line for ages and love it. I didn't go up after M4 because of the darker lens. Sony hasn't released any new models in this line for years, let's admit that it is dated in 2023. So I am OK to go to another brand, even if the camera will be a bit bigger. I don't want interchangeable lens, but I do need 4k video with at least 30 minutes without limits or overheating. Unfortunately, I was unable to find any compact camera that would beat RX100M7.

I am thinking of Panasonic Lumix DC-S5II but not sure what zoom lens will be at least comparable to what RX100M4 has. It is too big, too expensive, and too featured for my needs, but I just can't find anything else worth taking to level up from my M4.

Do we expect anything compact in this year that will be significantly better than M4? Should I go for S5II? I am going to travel soon, so need a good camera soon.
