Typically, it can be hard to see the contrast between sensor measurements only by going over specs. The photograph underneath may provide you a better sense of the sensor sizing in the FH25 and A7 III.

All in all, both the cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The FH25 with its tinier sensor will make achieving shallower DOF more difficult and the Sony A7 III will deliver more detail using its extra 8MP. Higher resolution will help you crop photographs somewhat more aggressively. The older FH25 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor tech.
