As you can tell, both of the cameras feature different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The WB150F due to its tinier sensor will make getting shallower depth of field harder and the Samsung WB150F will give extra detail having its extra 9 Megapixels. Greater resolution will let you crop pics way more aggressively. The more recent WB150F will have an advantage with regard to sensor tech.
