Each has their own areas they excel in - just gotta choose which one matters the most. The TG-4 (now 5) has a tiny, tiny sensor compared with most others which is one of the inputs to image quality.

And it's also heavier and bigger than the G9X I settled on. But that's to be expected, because I *chose* the G9X because it was the smallest of that particular range. The RX 100 above that he settled on as IQ that outdoes both of our cameras quite easily ... but is bigger than both (and should be compared with the G7X II in Canon).

That said, the TG-5 is much more durable (both for knocks and weather sealing). All comes down to which particular aspect matters most to you. In truth - and among the major brands - there are very few really bad choices,
