In many cases, its difficult to envision the difference in sensor dimensions just by researching a spec sheet. The pic below will provide you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the T6 and TG-830 iHS.

Clearly, the two cameras come with different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The T6 using its bigger sensor will make achieving shallower depth of field easier and the Canon T6 will result in more detail having an extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution will enable you to crop photographs a good deal more aggressively. The younger T6 will have an advantage when it comes to sensor tech.
