Size of the fret board is the primary difference.

The soprano is typically 13 inches from Nut to Bridge.

Concert is 15

Tenor is 17

Baritone is 19

The tone gets lower the larger you go. The larger size provides more volume as well.

Bigger hands need more space. For arpeggio and plucking I prefer the Concert. I find the Tenor just a bit bigger than is comfortable for many fingerings and the soprano just a bit smaller. For strumming I can use any of the sizes.
