All in all, the 2 cameras come with different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The T110 because of its tinier sensor is going to make shooting shallow DOF tougher and the YI M1 will resolve greater detail having its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also make it easier to crop pics a good deal more aggressively. The older T110 is going to be behind with regard to sensor technology.
