Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Canon A2500 is significantly lighter (36g ) than the Canon A810 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Canon PowerShot A810 nor Canon PowerShot A2500 provides any type of weather sealing in their bodies, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors.

LCD Screen Size and Features
Canon A2500's 3.00" LCD screen is slightly larger than Canon A810's 2.7" screen.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
