Clearly, both the cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The Galaxy Camera using its smaller sensor will make getting shallower depth of field more challenging and the Samsung Galaxy Camera will show more detail because of its extra 1MP. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop pictures a good deal more aggressively. The more recent Galaxy Camera is going to have an edge with regard to sensor innovation.
