It seems fitting that on the centenary of the Leica I Model A<\/a>, the German brand takes its iconic legacy and applies it to the Leica Leitzphone powered by Xiaomi<\/a>. One hundred years after the first 35mm camera came to market<\/a>, this device tries to mix modern and retro in ways other handsets don\u2019t.<\/p>\n

Still, the Leica Leitzphone is, in large part, an offshoot of the Xiaomi 17 Ultra<\/a> given they share so much in both design philosophy and internal specs. Even the photo-centric purpose draws parallels between them. And yet, this also feels like a different experience once you begin shooting with it, as I have for weeks now.<\/p>\n
