As you have seen, both cameras posses different resolutions and different sensor sizing. The M11 featuring a bigger sensor is going to make achieving shallow depth of field easier and the Leica M11 will resolve extra detail as a result of its extra 40 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also allow you to crop shots somewhat more aggressively. The younger M11 provides an edge in sensor innovation.
