Very different. Hasselblad was a top choice for the pro market (and used by rich amateurs, like Leica), Minolta never really managed to breach that market (this camera was the most significant attempt).

Hasselblad was the opposite of Leica, big format vs small format
Medium format (large format starts from 4x5 inches in modern usage), but while the professional applications were different the use by wealthy amateurs was basically the same.

Using your smartphone to photograph your Hasselblad focused on your Leica is certainly a flex.
