Often, it's hard to imagine the contrast in sensor measurements just by seeing specifications. The photograph below will provide you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the NX10 and WX300.

Plainly, the 2 cameras come with different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The NX10 with its larger sensor is going to make shooting shallower depth of field simpler and the Sony WX300 will provide greater detail because of its extra 3 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also help you crop pics a good deal more aggressively. The older NX10 will be behind when it comes to sensor tech.
