In a relationship since 2016, Huawei and Leica have just ended their relationship.

The German group, however, has already found comfort in another major player in mobile telephony.

Leica and Huawei: the break is confirmed

In 2016, Huawei launched its first smartphone equipped with a photo section headed by the illustrious Leica. A partnership that continued for many years, until the recent Huawei P50 and P50 Pro, which will be the last of the brand to benefit from the expertise of the German brand.

Indeed, Huawei recently confirmed that its close collaboration with Leica ended on March 31. Huawei’s setbacks in the United States, which caused the manufacturer to plummet dramatically in terms of sales worldwide, obviously got the better of the relationship between the two companies.

On the Leica side, we are not abandoning the smartphone market, since the group has teamed up with… Xiaomi. Indeed, both are actively developing a new smartphone, which will therefore bear the precious Leica seal, and which should be formalized during the summer. Remember that other photo giants are present on the mobile phone market, in particular Hasselblad at OnePlus or Zeiss at vivo.
