As you can plainly see, each of these cameras feature different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The S01 featuring a tinier sensor is going to make achieving shallow DOF more difficult and the Samsung TL320 will give greater detail due to its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop shots way more aggressively. The fresher S01 provides an advantage with regard to sensor innovation.
