Today, Xiaomi has announced an official partnership with Leica Camera. Leica Camera is a German camera tech company that collaborated a lot with Huawei. Now onwards with Xiaomi, there will be an imaging flagship smartphone coming soon in July 2022.

It looks like GSC will be entering the video streaming industry with this new partnership. The company has recently worked with GetPlay to allow users directly stream content on mobile devices through the GSC and GetPlay apps.

Rumour has it, Xiaomi will be partnering with Leica for a smartphone that is coming in the future.

Some may find it a hassle to open the e-wallet app when wanting to pay. If there's a slow internet connection, the payment process would be awkward, especially when there's a long line behind you.

A surprising partnership has been announced, and it's between two companies that hardly have any connections, well, except selling smartphones.

Camera performance is probably one of the things that people look into first before getting new smartphones. Not only the smartphone manufacturers are trying their best to come out with cameras that are good enough to compete with others, but they are also working with big camera brands to bring more reliability to their devices.

LG may have stopped manufacturing smartphones, but it's still not completely unrelated to the business. In fact, reports from last week suggested that the company is in talks with Apple to sell iPhones in its stores. However, Samsung wants to have its phones sold in LG stores too.
