In many cases, it's difficult to see the contrast in sensor measurements just by researching specifications. The photograph here might provide you a clearer sense of the sensor sizing in the NX10 and RX1R.

Plainly, each of the cameras come with different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The NX10 featuring a smaller sensor will make shooting bokeh harder and the Sony RX1R will render more detail having its extra 9MP. Greater resolution can also enable you to crop images a good deal more aggressively. The older NX10 will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor tech.
