Quite often, it can be tough to envision the difference between sensor dimensions only by checking a spec sheet. The image here may offer you a greater sense of the sensor sizes in the NX11 and W830.

As you can see, the two cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The NX11 because of its bigger sensor will make shooting shallower DOF easier and the Sony W830 will resolve extra detail due to its extra 5MP. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop shots somewhat more aggressively. The more aged NX11 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor technology.
