Plenty.  Any decent subcompact basically.  It was groundbreaking then,
now there is nothing special in it anymore.

The design was abandoned because of the protruding zoom lenses of
today.  The concept lives on.

If anything, I'd vote for beauties like the Olympus SW line (take
anywhere was the original XA concept), the Leica D‐Lux 3 (like raw
output, dislike 16:9 format, control is the word here)…
