Clearly, each of the cameras feature different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The SX150 IS having a smaller sensor is going to make getting shallower depth of field harder and the Canon SX150 IS will produce extra detail using its extra 2MP. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop photographs way more aggressively. The older SX150 IS will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor tech.
