The imaging sensors have become more sensitive and now have the ability to capture more pixels per image. The microelectronics allows more components onto a smaller area, and more. All this technology results in one powerful gadget that is quite robust yet any sudden fall can result serious damage, a chipped board here, a misaligned lens there and you’d sure be on your way to get a new one. These camera’s are also on the side of disposable gadgets for their compact size means there is little you can do to remedy say a failed chip other than replace the whole board which would set you back a lot of money, almost the price of the camera itself. They are rated for drop tests which can be found in the manual though the quick guide would surely recommend that you do not drop it anyway.
    The batteries also require some care, similar to your other gadgets like your mobile which would need conditioning and proper charging. Batteries can explode if they are installed in reverse order with the polarities opposite their normal positions which has most of the ones that use proprietary types go in only one way to prevent such accidents. The terminals of the memory modules are also quite sensitive so insert them with care so you don’t bend them out of shape that can result in shorts, busting the camera and memory module.
