Typically, it is tough to visualise the gap in sensor sizes only by viewing a spec sheet. The image below may provide you a much better sense of the sensor sizing in the TX10 and TX100V.
Clearly, both of those cameras have the same sensor dimensions and the identical MP and you can expect comparable quality of photos but you really should factor the launch date  of the cameras into account. The more recent TX10 will have a benefit in sensor technology.
