Canon announces the latest addition to their G series. It checks all the boxes I want in a compact, we'll see about performance come November.

Interesting; I wonder how much I can get for my G1X II?!

Looks like a real nice camera. There's a lot packed into that thing. I'd like to see some shots from it. Looks like an excellent travel camera. I'm sure someone will bitch about a couple things i.e. battery life. no 4K, no mic, no GPS. But it's loaded otherwise.

Interesting. Canon is getting a bit sleazy here. If this report is true, Canon is merely releasing what shoukd be a G-5X mark 2 as a G-1X mark 3.

Not at all. There may be some similarities between the G5X and the G1X III but the new camera is no G5X clone. The G5X has a 1 inch class sensor, the new G1X is APS-C. The new camera is more like a mini 200D on steroids with a fixed lens.
