That could be down to your eye sight or the quality of the lenses that you used.

When I look at DPR's Studio Test images, I see the GX8 as having more pixels but not appreciably more detail than the GX7. This is probably due to the presence of AA filters on both. OTOH, I do see more fine detail from the GX9 and G9, both of which have 20MP sensors with no AA filters.
