The R was introduced 4 years after the a3500 which is a fairly sizable gap as far as camera technology is concerned. Each of these cameras feature the same body design (SLR-style mirrorless).

Before getting straight to a more detailed comparison, here is a brief view of how the R grades versus the a3500 in terms of portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

The following is a preview of the gallery photos for Canon EOS R and Sony Alpha a3500. The whole galleries are available at Canon R Gallery and Sony a3500 Gallery.

More often than not, it's difficult to visualize the difference in sensor dimensions only by viewing specs. The picture below might give you a far better sense of the sensor measurements in the R and a3500.

As you can plainly see, both the cameras come with different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The R with its bigger sensor is going to make achieving bokeh simpler and the Canon R will render greater detail using its extra 10 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also make it easier to crop pictures a good deal more aggressively. The more recent R should have an edge with regard to sensor tech.
