Normally, it can be difficult to imagine the contrast in sensor dimensions only by going through specifications. The image here might give you a more clear sense of the sensor sizing in the GX850 and NX11.

To sum up, both of those cameras have different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The GX850 featuring a smaller sensor is going to make achieving shallower depth of field harder and the Panasonic GX850 will show extra detail having its extra 1MP. Greater resolution will allow you to crop images a bit more aggressively. The more modern GX850 provides an advantage with regard to sensor innovation.
