Google translate:

Leica "2998" registered with the certification body was confirmed with the new Leica SL. The main features are "47 million pixel CMOS", "CINE mode", and "4K video". It is unknown whether it will be a leaked camera as code name “Vader” (* The attached image is a camera where a video is posted as Vader)

I've been lied to. Same 47MP counts. 

The new body is even uglier than before. But it seems definitely smaller than before. But still same stupid LEGO hands grip. Or should I say Darth Vader handgrip.

No S, no M, no R cameras inspired body. Just something quite weird

Providing that is the SL2 it is pretty much what i was saying from day one, take Dr K word with pinch of salt.  That lens is same barrel like any other L Summicron, looks moderate in size on that brute lump of a camera, will be ok with large Pana and Sigma lenses though.  

It would be expensive 😏 to reinvent the wheel by packaging innards of the S1R into more streamlined body, much easier to re-badge the Pana S1R into SL square skin and no doubt charge the premium in the process.

No more S cameras 4 software buttons. Only M10, Q2, CL 3 buttons layout

Screen looks bigger, or the body shrinks considerably

Looks like the strap lugs have changed as well, likely we can  use standard rings  now.

No more GPS? Personally, I'd rather have the same strap holders as the SL1.

looks like the control layout is fundamentally different - which is a let down

I like that they have kept the brutalist architectural style

I won't say whether I like this more then the current one, until I see a real one, but its not a million miles between them

The S1R has nothing to do with the SL

Aligning the hot shoe. The SL2 is only slightly smaller.

However the screen is bigger. Something like a 3,2" 

Both dials, joystick, EVF button and ON/OFF switch have the same size as before.
