Normally, it is tough to envision the gap between sensor dimensions only by checking a spec sheet. The picture here may provide you a stronger sense of the sensor dimensions in the H400 and HX350.
As you can see, each of these cameras have the same sensor dimensions and the identical MP and you can expect similar quality of photos but you would want to factor the age of the products into consideration. The more aged H400 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor tech.
