Quite often, it is difficult to visualize the gap in sensor measurements just by looking through a spec sheet. The photograph below might offer you a much better sense of the sensor sizing in the M320 and ST95.

As you can see, each of these cameras posses different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The M320 due to its smaller sensor is going to make shooting shallower DOF more challenging and the Samsung ST95 will result in more detail as a result of its extra 7MP. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop shots somewhat more aggressively. The older M320 will be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
