Sometimes, it is very difficult to see the difference in sensor measurements merely by going through specs. The photograph underneath should give you a stronger sense of the sensor sizes in the TX10 and ZV-1.

All in all, the two cameras have got different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The TX10 with its smaller sensor will make shooting shallower DOF tougher and the Sony ZV-1 will show extra detail using its extra 4MP. Greater resolution will also allow you to crop photos much more aggressively. The older TX10 will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor technology.
