As you have seen, the two cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The M6 MII due to its tinier sensor is going to make shooting shallower depth of field harder and the Canon M6 MII will give you more detail due to its extra 9MP. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop photographs a good deal more aggressively. The more modern M6 MII provides an advantage in sensor technology.
