Plainly, both of the cameras come with different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The NX mini using its bigger sensor is going to make achieving shallow depth of field less difficult and the Samsung NX mini will give you greater detail with its extra 2.5MP. Higher resolution will also make it easier to crop pictures a good deal more aggressively. The younger NX mini should have an edge in sensor tech.
