Typically, it is difficult to envision the contrast in sensor sizing purely by looking through technical specs. The photograph here might provide you a greater sense of the sensor sizes in the M100 and CL.

As you have seen, both of the cameras come with the identical sensor size and the same megapixels so you should expect comparable quality of images but you would want to take the production date of the cameras into account.
