More often than not, its tough to see the gap between sensor sizing just by reading technical specs. The visual underneath will help offer you a more clear sense of the sensor dimensions in the 650D and 80D.

As you can tell, both cameras offer the same exact sensor sizing albeit not the same megapixels. You should count on the Canon 80D to deliver greater detail as a result of its extra 6 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also make it easier to crop shots a little more aggressively. The older 650D is going to be behind in sensor technology.
