Typically, it is hard to envision the gap between sensor dimensions only by looking at specifications. The picture underneath will give you a better sense of the sensor sizes in the NX10 and TX100V.

Plainly, both of the cameras feature different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The NX10 due to its larger sensor will make getting shallower DOF easier and the Sony TX100V will resolve extra detail as a result of its extra 1MP. Greater resolution will also help you crop pics way more aggressively. The more aged NX10 is going to be behind with regard to sensor innovation.
