Sometimes, it is tough to see the contrast in sensor measurements just by seeing specs. The graphic underneath will help give you a clearer sense of the sensor measurements in the R5 and NX10.

All in all, both of those cameras come with different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The R5 using its bigger sensor will make shooting shallow DOF simpler and the Canon R5 will provide extra detail using its extra 30MP. Higher resolution can also let you crop pictures a good deal more aggressively. The more recent R5 will have a benefit with regard to sensor tech.
