As you can see, both cameras provide different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The 1s featuring a larger sensor is going to make shooting shallower DOF easier and the Olympus 1s will produce extra detail due to its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will allow you to crop pics more aggressively. The more modern 1s should have an edge in sensor tech.
