While the AF on the G3X might be slower than for the RX100VI, I'd guess that only matter if one liked to photograph BIF's or other action photography. If your main subject matter is stationary subject or landscapes, the AF speed wouldn't be so critical, I'd think. I've looked at the G3X and, at least on the surface, it looks a pretty good camera, especially since it's still being made. But if one is looking for a pocketable compact, it is not that.
Thanks for making this definitive and clarifying statement, Greg: "But if one is looking for a pocket-able compact, it is not that."
I often see them all included in a broad category, labeled "compact". I own 3 true "pocket cameras" (RX100, S100, etc,) and at least 3 "compact cameras" (Fuji X-E2, Canon G10, etc.), and for me, they ain't all the same. If I could quickly and easily get a Fujifilm X-E2, or Sony a6000 in and out of a typical men's trouser pocket (especially jean pockets), I'd never have spent the money on a real "pocket-camera".
