Canon ELPH 330 or Nikon Coolpix S6500 : any reviews/comparisons yet ?

I'd like to replace mi Canon SD1400 with a new ultracompact that offers better IQ and zoom. I wonder if either the ELPH 330HS or the Coolphix S6500 offer a substantial gain in IQ.  I recently compared low light pictures taken with mi SD1400 and pics taken with my cellphone Xperia Arc and the results are almost the same. Of course, the Xperia doesn't have a zoom.

So, any reviews yet to take a decision.

Christian.

I have looked for the elph 330 but found no reviews yet, just spec comparos.

I personally would not consider any P&S with so many mp's as the Nikon now ONLY has, 16mp min, just too many pixels for a 1/2.3" sensor!!

I have the elph 300hs and my only gripe is I would like more than 5x, otherwise a very small and very handy little cam!! Has same sensor as 330, slightly faster lens slightly smaller (VERY small shirt pocket cam).

Should see a review with a couple weeks are my guess, Nikon don't care.

Panasonic have some nice travel cams,  chk out their zs 12mp ones.
