Samsung WB750 vs Sony G3 Sensor Comparison

Quite often, it is tough to envision the difference between sensor dimensions only by looking at specs. The picture below might give you a much better sense of the sensor sizing in the WB750 and G3.

All in all, the two cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements but not the same megapixels. You should anticipate the Samsung WB750 to resolve more detail because of its extra 3 Megapixels.
