Normally, it is very hard to envision the difference between sensor dimensions just by reviewing specifications. The image here should give you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the SZ-16 iHS and W370.

Plainly, both of those cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements albeit not the same megapixels. You should expect the Olympus SZ-16 iHS to offer more detail due to its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also make it easier to crop photographs somewhat more aggressively. The younger SZ-16 iHS will have an edge when it comes to sensor technology.
