Often, it is hard to visualise the difference between sensor sizing just by reading specs. The photograph underneath will offer you a much better sense of the sensor measurements in the Fujifilm X-Pro2 and M11.

All in all, each of these cameras enjoy different resolutions and different sensor sizing. The Fujifilm X-Pro2 due to its tinier sensor will make shooting shallow DOF more difficult and the Leica M11 will offer more detail having its extra 36MP. Higher resolution can also allow you to crop shots far more aggressively. The older Fujifilm X-Pro2 is going to be behind with regard to sensor innovation.
