In many cases, it can be tough to visualize the gap between sensor sizing merely by checking a spec sheet. The visual here will offer you a better sense of the sensor dimensions in the NX10 and WB210.

Clearly, both cameras posses different resolutions and different sensor sizing. The NX10 featuring a bigger sensor is going to make shooting shallower depth of field easier and the Samsung NX10 will resolve extra detail having its extra 1 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop shots somewhat more aggressively. The older NX10 is going to be behind in sensor innovation.
