As you have seen, the two cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The A9 II having a bigger sensor is going to make getting shallower depth of field less difficult and the Sony A9 II will result in extra detail because of its extra 8MP. Higher resolution will allow you to crop pictures somewhat more aggressively. The newer A9 II provides a benefit when it comes to sensor technology.
