Normally, it's difficult to envision the contrast between sensor measurements simply by checking specifications. The graphic below might provide you a much better sense of the sensor measurements in the Fujifilm X-S10 and S1.

Plainly, each of the cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The Fujifilm X-S10 with its tinier sensor will make shooting shallower depth of field more difficult and the Fujifilm X-S10 will give you greater detail using its extra 2MP. Higher resolution can also help you crop photographs a good deal more aggressively. The more recent Fujifilm X-S10 is going to have a benefit when it comes to sensor innovation.
