Oftentimes, it can be hard to envision the difference in sensor sizing purely by researching technical specs. The graphic below might provide you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the Fujifilm X-E4 and M11.

As you can tell, both the cameras have different resolutions and different sensor sizing. The Fujifilm X-E4 with its smaller sensor will make getting shallower DOF more challenging and the Leica M11 will result in more detail using its extra 34MP. Greater resolution will also let you crop photos a bit more aggressively. The older Fujifilm X-E4 will be behind with regard to sensor innovation.
