I think the cheap 1m dot selfie-screen and EFCS only on the A7CR limited it a bit too much, given the higher cost over the A7CII.
If they are (I don't think they are) going up against the Leica Q3 which has a 1.8m dot tilt screen and 5.7m dot evf, they have’t quite managed it yet. Especially so since there isn’t an excellent and compact 28mm E-mount AF lens available.
That said, other than the FPL there isn't an interchangeable lens camera using that sensor offering so many features, which does make the A7CR unique in many ways.
Specification-wise, I agree that the screen/EVF is of lower resolution and it only has EFCS, but, have you used it or are you just regurgitating something you have heard others say about these being limitations?
Q2/Q3 are slightly taller so maybe this allows more room for better tech?
124mm vs 130mm (W) and 71mm vs 80mm (H) so I think you're right about the EVF not fitting into the A7CR.
Perhaps they could have gone with 3.6M dot. Perhaps not. I still think neither screen nor EVF are great but I guess we have to consider the challenges the designers faced when the marketing team tell them the specs it must have.
(A7CR + 24mm G = 697g w/hood.)
