For me, it comes down to size. I had an EOS M kit earlier this year. Once you add the 18-55 and EF-M Adapter, you might as well be carrying a Rebel SL1 or T4i or something. Even without all of that and just using the 22 f/2, which is a nice lens, you're still not far off from an SLR.
If you're leaving the M at home because it's too big, then does it really matter about IQ? For general snapshots, the RX100 beats the hell out of a camera phone and offers up some nice video options. I had one for a while, but couldn't justify the cost as it was WAYYYY overpriced when it first came out (as is the case with the GX1, GX1 Mark II, RX100 II, etc.).
If it were me, I'd pick up an original version of the RX100 used for half the cost of a new version and give it a whirl.
You'd probably love the RX100 as it truly does offer remarkable IQ for such a small camera. And the front control ring is buttery smooth.
You've talked me into getting another one.
