It's a very, very old CCD sensor (15+ years), so that might be the best you can get. I looked at a few SX110 photos in Flickr and it's about the same.
I would lean into it. There's a small but enthusiastic niche of photography with these older CCD sensors and the character they bring.
If you want tack sharpness, that standard will usually be set by the latest and greatest. If you want character, older is sometimes better.
