Before diving in to a in depth comparison, below is a brief summation of how the 4000D scores versus the M50 II in terms of portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Canon 4000D vs Canon M50 II Sensor Comparison
Typically, it is very difficult to envision the gap between sensor measurements only by reading specifications. The graphic underneath should offer you a better sense of the sensor sizing in the 4000D and M50 II.
Plainly, the two cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements but not the same resolution. You should anticipate the Canon M50 II to deliver extra detail using its extra 6 Megapixels. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop pics somewhat more aggressively. The older 4000D is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor innovation.
