The Q2 uses Bluetooth Low Energy for connectivity via the Leica FOTOS app, and its battery yields a CIPA rating of 370 shots per charge. The Q2's high resolution OLED electronic view finder has a resolution of 3.68 megapixels. The Q2's body includes weather sealing against dust and water spray.[5][6][7]
It replaces the popular original Leica Q (Typ 116), introduced in 2015, and is designed in the manner of a typical Leica M rangefinder.
