Usually, it can be difficult to visualise the difference between sensor sizes merely by checking technical specs. The picture below should give you a clearer sense of the sensor sizing in the EX2F and TX7.

As you have seen, each of the cameras have different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The EX2F using its bigger sensor will make shooting shallower DOF less difficult and the Samsung EX2F will give greater detail with its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution will make it easier to crop photographs a bit more aggressively. The newer EX2F is going to have a benefit when it comes to sensor tech.
