Sometimes, it is tough to visualise the gap in sensor sizes simply by looking through a spec sheet. The picture below might give you a much better sense of the sensor measurements in the M and NX2000.

As you can see, the 2 cameras provide the same sensor dimensions albeit not the same megapixels. You should count on the Samsung NX2000 to provide you with more detail due to its extra 2MP. Higher resolution will also enable you to crop photographs more aggressively. The more aged M will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor tech.
