Leica M10-R for selfies?
The Leica M10-R has a rear LCD that is fixed to the body. Thus, the screen cannot be used to monitor the framing when taking selfies or during v-logging. The functions of the LCD are, hence, limited to checking the camera's menu settings and reviewing images.
In terms of size and resolution, the rear LCD of the Leica M10-R measures 3.0 inches and offers a resolution of 1,037,000 dots. The panel is touch sensitive.

It is worthwhile pointing out that the M10-R has a touchscreen. Touch control can be particularly helpful, for example, when trying to adjust the focus point.
