I have a set of m4/3 gear and a Sony A7ii. The Sony is better for wide angle (I have two native lenses, going out to 16mm) and for low or difficult light. By the latter I mean things like sunny conditions with deep shadows - it can pull a lot of detail out of those. I find the Sony has a bit more detail and a kind of indefinable quality to the images.

The m4/3 gear lets me go more compact, gives me a bit more versatility with its more affordable lens selection and lets me carry up to 600mm equivalent in a tiny package.

Interestingly, my EM1.1 body is the same size as the A7ii body; the size of the lenses is where the difference comes in.

Happiness lies in thinking or doing that which one considers beautiful - HIK
