Quite often, it can be hard to see the gap between sensor measurements only by looking at a spec sheet. The graphic below will help provide you a better sense of the sensor measurements in the NX2000 and A6700.

Clearly, both of these cameras come with the identical sensor size but not the same MP. You should expect to see the Sony A6700 to resolve greater detail with its extra 6 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also allow you to crop images a good deal more aggressively. The older NX2000 is going to be behind when it comes to sensor tech.
