In many cases, it can be difficult to picture the gap in sensor sizing only by researching specifications. The graphic here might offer you a clearer sense of the sensor measurements in the WB800F and SD9.

Plainly, the two cameras offer different resolutions and different sensor sizing. The WB800F using its smaller sensor is going to make achieving shallower depth of field harder and the Samsung WB800F will render extra detail using its extra 13 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also enable you to crop images a little more aggressively. The newer WB800F should have an advantage in sensor technology.
