We already listed pros and cons of each model. However, you may also find useful to look at their common strengths and weaknesses shown side-by-side.

Screen

Fujifilm X100VI and Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark III have 3.0" Tilting screens with 1,620k dot and 1,040k dot resolutions respectively. Tilting screen makes cameras very useful for photography purposes but not so useful for video shooting. Both models feature touchscreen which has advantages such as easy menu navigation, intuitive controls, quick setting adjustment and most importantly a Touch-to-Focus functionality allowing users to select a specific point on the screen where they want the camera to focus. This feature can be helpful for achieving precise focus in both photo and video recording.

Electronic and Optical (tunnel) Viewfinder on Fujifilm X100VI

Fujifilm X100VI has a built-in Electronic and Optical (tunnel) viewfinder with 3,690k dot resolution. It has a 100% coverage. There is no built-in or optional viewfinder available on Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark III.

Fujifilm X100VI features a 40.2 megapixel APS-C [] sensor with dimensions of 23.5 x 15.6 mm and a total area of 366.6 mm². Its native ISO range is 125 - 12,800 and expands to 64 - 51,200 in boosted mode. Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark III features a 20.1 megapixel 1-inch BSI-CMOS sensor with dimensions of 13.2 x 8.8 mm and a total area of 77.4 mm². Its native ISO range is 125 - 12,800 and expands to 125 - 25,600 in boosted mode.

Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark III has BSI-CMOS sensor, short for Backside Illuminated Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor sensor. In traditional CMOS sensors, the wiring and circuitry are located on the front side of the sensor, which can block some of the incoming light. BSI technology flips this design by placing the photosensitive elements (pixels) on the backside of the sensor, allowing more light to reach the pixels. This significantly enhances light sensitivity and improves low-light performance. BSI-CMOS sensors are particularly effective in low-light conditions, as they can capture more light, resulting in brighter and less noisy images. This makes them well-suited for indoor and night photography. BSI-CMOS sensors deliver a higher SNR and reduced cross-talk.

Fujifilm X100VI is equipped with X-Processor 5 processor and can take pictures up to 7728 x 5152 resolution. Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark III is equipped with DIGIC 8 processor and can take pictures up to 5472 x 3648 resolution.

No Low-Pass Filter on Fujifilm X100VI

There is no optical low-pass filter (OLPF), also known as an anti-aliasing filter, in front of the sensor on Fujifilm X100VI. This results in a slightly sharper image but may also introduce moiré patterns and aliasing artifacts when photographing subjects with fine, repetitive patterns or details.

Image Stabilization

The cameras have a built-in image stabilization.

Built-in Wi-Fi

Cameras have built-in Wi-Fi (802.11b/g/n 2.4 GHz on Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark III) which allows to easily transfer photos and videos from the camera to other Wi-Fi-enabled devices, such as smartphones, tablets, printers, or computers. This eliminates the need for cables and allows for quick and convenient media sharing and social media integration. It gives you the ability to control your camera remotely using a smartphone or tablet. This is particularly useful for taking self-portraits, group shots, or capturing images in challenging conditions without having to touch the camera. Firmware updates can also be downloaded and installed wirelessly.
