Normally, its hard to imagine the gap between sensor measurements purely by reading through technical specs. The visual below might give you a better sense of the sensor measurements in the F80EXR and S5200.

As you have seen, both of these cameras enjoy different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The F80EXR with its bigger sensor is going to make shooting bokeh less difficult and the Nikon S5200 will resolve extra detail with its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution will make it easier to crop pictures far more aggressively. The older F80EXR is going to be disadvantaged in sensor technology.
