Leica T Typ 701 has a
16.0MP APS-C (23.6 x 15.7 mm ) sized CMOS sensor . On the other hand, Sony A6600 has a
24.0MP APS-C (23.5 x 15.6 mm ) sized CMOS sensor and features Bionz X processor.
Sony A6600's sensor provides 8MP more than Leica T Typ 701's sensor, which gives a significant advantage in real life. You can print your images larger or crop more freely.
On the other hand, please keep in mind that Max sensor resolution is not the only determinant of resolving power. Factors such as the optical elements, low pass filter, pixel size and sensor technology also affects the final resolution of the captured image.
Below you can see the T Type 701 and A6600 sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Leica T Typ 701 and Sony A6600 Cameras
Leica T Typ 701 and Sony A6600 have almost the same sensor size, so neither of them has any significant advantage over the other in terms of providing control over depth of field when used with the same focal length and aperture.
DxOMark Sensor Scores
DxOMark is a benchmark that scientifically assesses image quality of camera sensors. It scores camera sensors for color depth (DXO Portrait), dynamic range (DXO Landscape) and low-light sensitivity (DXO Sports), and also gives them an overall score. Leica T Typ 701 and Sony A6600 sensors have been tested by DxO and the results show that A6600 has a better overall score of 82, 7 points higher compared to T Type 701's score of 75.

Sensor size sets the circle of confusion, so it drives how much depth of field each
of these bodies gives you at a given aperture. You can calculate it exactly for the
Leica T Typ 701
or the
Sony A6600 ,
including hyperfocal distance.
