As for aesthetics, the smartphone gains the infamous Leica red badge – a symbol of an even tighter and stronger partnership between the two brands. It also features a rear cover with a junction design that combines fiberglass and eco-leather, in Black or White color options: the final look is a style that calls to mind traditional camera bodies.
