Usually, it's difficult to see the difference between sensor dimensions purely by going over a spec sheet. The image below will help offer you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the Fujifilm XP30 and TG-6.
As you can see, each of these cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements albeit not the same resolution. You should count on the Fujifilm XP30 to offer more detail as a result of its extra 2MP. Higher resolution will also let you crop pictures somewhat more aggressively. The more aged Fujifilm XP30 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor tech.
