ricoh gr3 or ricoh gr3x are also pretty popular x100v alternatives (though they're a bit different)
i have a x100v and like it a lot. have shot over 9000 photos so far with it

- size: The Ricoh is actually pocketable. Now every time I go out, I have it in my pants or jacket pocket.
- snap focus and snap distance priority: a godsend for street photography.
- convenience and speed: since I usually have it on hand, and by default on snap distance priority, it takes me a littler over 1 second to turn the camera on and snap a picture.
That said, I did order a Fuji x100v so my wife and I can both have a camera with us when we go out. Also, they are different as you mentioned
