Typically, it's difficult to see the difference between sensor sizes purely by reading through a spec sheet. The picture underneath might offer you a stronger sense of the sensor dimensions in the G9 X and FH25.

Clearly, both the cameras come with different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The G9 X having a bigger sensor will make getting shallower DOF easier and the Canon G9 X will give more detail having an extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also let you crop photographs a good deal more aggressively. The more modern G9 X will have a benefit with regard to sensor innovation.
