Often, its tough to see the difference in sensor dimensions purely by seeing a spec sheet. The picture here might offer you a better sense of the sensor sizing in the NX100 and NX1000.

As you can see, both cameras offer the same exact sensor sizing but not the same megapixels. You should expect to see the Samsung NX1000 to provide more detail utilizing its extra 5MP. Greater resolution can also make it easier to crop images a little more aggressively. The more aged NX100 will be disadvantaged in sensor tech.
