Also the Olympus XZ-2 gets DxOmarked.
After the LX7 also the Olympus XZ-2 got tested at DxOmark (Click here). They write: “Its overall sensor performance scores are a significant improvement on the original XZ-1 and easily measure up to the Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX7 and Canon PowerShot G15.“

XZ-2 49 points (DR 0,9EV better, but color depth and ISO better too)
Significant improvement.
But LX7 gets 50 points and is cheaper.
And Sony RX100 get 66 points (ISO is not so important, because XZ-2 has faster lens, but DR is better 1,1EV in Sony and color depth better), and it is not bigger (even smaller) then XZ-2. Sony gets the same result as Canon 60D with APS-C sensor.
Olympus OM-D gets 71 points.

Look what they wrote at mirrorless rumors: Pentax Q10 on par with GF5.
There was also a ridiculous thread somewhere about RX1 vs E-M5.
Sorry but I have to laugh at these ridiculous scorings.
The comparison you have to make yourself and judge by your own eyes the compromise you are going to make. Since every buy will be a compromise of IQ vs usability vs … etc.
The only indication that is clear are the measured results put in the grapghs, the scoring is idiocy.
