Sometimes, it is tough to imagine the contrast between sensor sizing purely by looking at technical specs. The photograph below will give you a much better sense of the sensor sizing in the X70 and T110.

As you have seen, both cameras come with the identical sensor size albeit different resolution. You should expect the Sony T110 to give extra detail because of its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution will allow you to crop photographs a good deal more aggressively. The older X70 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
