Google's big news yesterday was the announcement that the next version of Android would be known as KitKat as opposed to Key Lime Pie. However, in talking up the new name, did Google accidentally leak the new Nexus handset?
Google yesterday released a video showing the unloading and installation of the new Android KitKat statue at its campus in California. As usual, the video showed lots of excited Google's oogling the new arrival and taking photos and videos of its unboxing. The video shows at least one unidentified LG device carrying the Nexus branding. It looks larger than the Nexus 4, which conveniently appears alongside the mystery device in the hands of another Google employee.
Google made the video soon after eagle-eyed viewers noticed the device in question. These days, though, once it's out, it's out. The video is readily available on other channels so you can still see for yourself. Check it out at 0:38 in the clip below (via Tek First):
At the moment, there's little information about the Nexus 5 out there, though rumors say it will be the largest Nexus phone yet, with a screen measuring more than 5 inches. There's also talk of a Snapdragon 800 chipset, 2GB of RAM and, of course, KitKat.
