Has anyone noticed that Leica removed the back LCD and charges more for
the camera, only Leica could get away with removing features and
charging more.

I'm not getting that. Functional, maybe, and well-finished. But the advance
lever is just ugly. And only a tiny red dot on the back for your 8K.

This is a new take on the "M-mount digital camera" that I saw on Leica Rumors:
https://pixii.fr.
Rangefinder, manual focus and exposure, no LCD, 256G built-in memory only, WiFi
connect for data transfer, etc. They don't list a sensor format and Mpixel yet,
but rumor has it that it's an APS-C format with 12 to 16 Mpixels. Another
information update is supposedly due soon.
Has anyone yet mentioned that Leica has since announced that they're
making essentially the same kind of camera?

Minimalist. No LCD. WiFi only.
It's 24MP full-frame. (I can's see myself using a Leica rangefinder
with Leica lenses if not full frame - just doesn't "feel" right to
me.)
Of course, being Leica, the *price* isn't minimalist: 8 grand.
If not for the price I could quite see myself using one of these.
