Fujifilm XQ1 was introduced to the market in November 2013 and Leica Q was launched in June 2015. There is 18 months difference between XQ1 and Q Typ 116 so we don't expect to see a huge technology difference between these two cameras but it would still give an advantage to younger Q Typ 116, especially in sensor tech.
