Looking at the rest of the back of the LX10, there aren't a lot of buttons. I left it at "2" in all but a few outdoor shooting situations, when I had to turn up the brightness to see better. It has four brightness settings: automatic, 1 (brightest), 2 (standard) and 3 (dimmest). I found that the LCD's visibility was good in all lighting conditions. It doesn't tilt downward or swivel, but it's still a nice display. The touchscreen display has 1,040,000 dots and can tilt up 180 degrees to act as a selfie screen. Speaking of rugged design, the tilting 3-inch touchscreen LCD has a robust tilting mechanism that manages to maintain a slim profile. Despite being small and light, it feels very solid in my hand. The LX10's dimensions are 4.15 x 2.36 x 1.65 inches (105.5 x 60 x 42 millimeters) and it weighs 10.9 ounces (310 grams) with the battery.

It's slightly smaller than a Canon G7X II and slightly larger than a Sony RX100. The press-forged body (rather than injection molded, which is much more the industry standard) is quite compact.

The Panasonic LX10 has a very small front grip, which doesn't do much to provide security when holding the camera, so I highly recommend always using the included wrist strap. Whereas the Canon G7X II has a textured grip finish, the LX10 (and RX100 series) does not. In fact, the camera is perhaps too smooth. This leads to a smooth, sleek appearance. The camera has a seamless metal profile, which means that the top panel is part of the front panel. As a "premium compact," the Panasonic LX10 should have a premium feel, and it achieves this through its interesting design and fabrication process.
