More often than not, it is difficult to picture the difference between sensor dimensions purely by reviewing specs. The picture here will help offer you a better sense of the sensor sizing in the R6 II and X1D.

As you can plainly see, both of the cameras have got different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The R6 II using its tinier sensor is going to make achieving shallower depth of field harder and the Hasselblad X1D will offer you more detail using its extra 27MP. Greater resolution will also enable you to crop images much more aggressively. The fresher R6 II should have a benefit in sensor technology.
