Often, it is very difficult to picture the contrast in sensor sizes only by seeing technical specs. The pic underneath will help provide you a far better sense of the sensor sizes in the NX10 and W220.

As you have seen, both of these cameras feature different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The NX10 featuring a bigger sensor is going to make getting shallow depth of field less difficult and the Samsung NX10 will provide greater detail having its extra 3MP. Higher resolution will allow you to crop pictures way more aggressively. The fresher NX10 should have a benefit when it comes to sensor technology.
