Generally, it's hard to visualize the gap in sensor dimensions merely by researching a spec sheet. The picture here may give you a greater sense of the sensor sizes in the GH5 II and NX10.

Clearly, both of those cameras posses different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The GH5 II due to its smaller sensor is going to make shooting bokeh harder and the Panasonic GH5 II will render more detail as a result of its extra 5 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also enable you to crop images somewhat more aggressively. The more modern GH5 II should have an edge with regard to sensor tech.
