The same is true for the 20mp sensor. It's good, but far from the best. Smaller m4/3 sensors are catching up with it (gx7 and em5/1). Canon apart, all the other modern aps-c cameras have better high iso performance and dr.

Any difference that you may find in today's sensors is negligible

All the sensors are doing so well, the differences are insignificant. I have to say, that micro43 sensors have come a long way from what they started. But I still don't like the m43 aspect ratio or the DOF disadvantage. Also, the m43 lenses are not physically smaller than APS-C lenses from Samsung (except the GM1 kit zoom lens, that thing is sweet.) Also true, that Canon has been slightly dragging behind on the sensor technology department lately, but their non-commitment to produce a decent mirrorless camera is even more noteworthy.
