Quite often, it can be hard to picture the contrast between sensor measurements purely by checking specs. The graphic below will help give you a better sense of the sensor sizes in the M50 and HS20 EXR.

All in all, both of those cameras offer different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The M50 with its bigger sensor is going to make achieving shallower depth of field simpler and the Canon M50 will give greater detail using its extra 8 Megapixels. Higher resolution will allow you to crop photographs a little more aggressively. The younger M50 provides an edge when it comes to sensor technology.
