Normally, it can be tough to visualize the contrast in sensor measurements simply by checking out a spec sheet. The visual here may provide you a stronger sense of the sensor sizes in the TG-310 and TG-320.
Clearly, both of those cameras enjoy the same exact sensor sizing and the same megapixels and you should expect comparable quality of photographs however you would want to take the production date  of the cameras into account. The older TG-310 will be behind in sensor innovation.
