Yesterday, Xiaomi announced a partnership with Leica, ending years of cooperation between the well-known camera manufacturer and Huawei, which has been going on since 2016.

In response to a question from the Android Authority, a spokesman for Chinese tech giant Huawei went on record as saying, “We can confirm that the cooperation between our two companies ended on March 31st.”

This means that the Huawei P50 and P50 Pro are the last Huawei phones with Leica cameras. The Huawei P50 Pocket clamshell did not receive a Leica camera, despite the fact that it was released last December, a few months before the official end of the partnership. This means that the Huawei Mate 50, whenever it arrives, will also not get a Leica camera.

Back in May last year, there were rumors that Leica was about to break off relations as Huawei loses market share due to US sanctions. Xiaomi and Honor have been named as potential new partners and it looks like Xiaomi won out in the end.

The company’s first Leica phone will arrive in July and it will likely be the Xiaomi 12 Ultra.

Google offers to purchase Google Galaxy S22+ and S22 Ultra smartphones at a very good discount, but for this the buyer needs to activate the Galaxy S22+ or S22 Ultra on the new Google Fi “full plan” and port the existing number from another operator.

In that case, the price of the Google Galaxy S22+ and S22 Ultra will be only $400 and $600, respectively, without the need to exchange an old phone when buying a new flagship. For existing users of the mobile operator Google Fi, this promotion is not valid. Google plans to increase the number of subscribers of the Google Fi operator with the help of such promotions.

It is worth noting that the price of the Google Galaxy S22 Ultra in the US starts at $ 1,200, so the smartphone, when connected to a new operator, costs a 50% discount.

Apple may become the owner of Electronic Arts. The Cupertino giant was reportedly one of those with whom Electronic Arts had already negotiated a purchase.

Other contenders include Amazon and Disney. All participants declined to comment, and it is currently unknown if any preliminary agreements have been reached with anyone. True, the source says that Disney allegedly backed out of the deal.

Electronic Arts is not in the best position now, including due to the failure of Battlefield 2042. On the other hand, Apple continues to develop its gaming business, and can easily afford such a purchase. True, Electronic Arts is a large company with many assets and popular franchises, and Apple usually buys various companies in order to fully integrate them into itself.
