Normally, it is difficult to picture the contrast in sensor sizing purely by seeing specs. The visual here should provide you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the 1 V1 and NX11.
As you can plainly see, the two cameras feature different resolutions and different sensor sizing. The 1 V1 having a smaller sensor is going to make shooting shallower DOF more difficult and the Samsung NX11 will show more detail with its extra 5 Megapixels. Higher resolution will let you crop shots way more aggressively. The younger 1 V1 should have an edge in sensor innovation.
