You will probably not see the differences in a store, but
in time, you may. The higher pixel count generally brings
higher resolution, but worse low-light range, and more
motion-artifacting. For more, see the comparison of
Sony imaging types, at

Whay you say is no doubt true but there is an instance when the pixel
count may
be misleading. Take two cameras A and B. A has a higher pixel count than
B but
uses a substantial number of those pixels for electronic image
stabilization. A
has optical stabilization and uses most of its pixels to produce the
image.
