The S1600 featuring a tinier sensor is going to make achieving shallower depth of field tougher and the Fujifilm HS35EXR will resolve extra detail as a result of its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution will allow you to crop photos somewhat more aggressively. The older S1600 is going to be behind when it comes to sensor innovation.
