Sometimes, it is very difficult to picture the difference between sensor sizes only by reading technical specs. The pic here will provide you a more clear sense of the sensor sizing in the 80D and R5.

As you can tell, both the cameras have different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The 80D having a tinier sensor is going to make getting shallow DOF trickier and the Canon R5 will offer you extra detail having an extra 21MP. Greater resolution can also enable you to crop photos a bit more aggressively. The more aged 80D is going to be behind in sensor innovation.
