will you have few minutes to spare and indulge me by answering my specfic questions?

These are:

1.

My 10 year old https://www.cnet.com/products/sony-c...ot-w180/specs/
New one from same cybershot series: https://www.cnet.com/products/sony-c...ot-w810/specs/

I would assume new one should be better (as new and not 10+ year old tech), but which specs do suggest that it is better?
(forget about megapixels as we are talking about picture quality, not the size, for me even 3mp is enough)?

How come f/ is worse in the new w810 comparing to w180?

------------ a new tech is going to be better, they close up the lenses to save money now, glass is expensive, light is expensive. now instead of better glass they add light electronically with 'faster iso' or gain in video

2.

Every review says that canon ixus 185 (ELPH 180) is better than sony w810 (specs link above)

Which specs would suggest that? Which specs would you look at?

------------ I have no idea, I haven't used a point in shoot camera since film. I would look at the glass and the highest 'ISO' + image size and video size and format

3.

Same pair as in the question #2.

Some guy who used both compared:

"I'd say the canon. I've used the Sony, doesn't focus quick, takes blurry photo's and terrible in low light."

Which exactly spec is indicating these three things:
a) focus quickness
b) blurriness level
c) being better/worse in low light

---------------- the reviews of the canon is what I would use, forget the specs, listen to the users. the bad reviews on the canon are from boobs, check them out....

Again, if you could answer specifically every question separately.
