More often than not, it's tough to visualise the gap between sensor measurements purely by reading through specifications. The photograph here should offer you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the NX11 and W220.

To sum up, both of those cameras feature different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The NX11 using its bigger sensor will make achieving bokeh simpler and the Samsung NX11 will give you extra detail using its extra 3 Megapixels. Higher resolution will allow you to crop shots way more aggressively. The more modern NX11 is going to have a benefit with regard to sensor technology.
