We have been teased with image and video leaks of Google"s Nexus 5 smartphone for a while now. Even the service manual for the Android device has popped up. Last week, the Nexus 5 showed up for a few hours in the Google Play store before being quickly removed.
Today, the ever busy Internet gadget poster evleaks came up with a new photo on his Twitter account which he claims is a white version of the Nexus 5. He also says the phone will finally go on sale on November 1st, after previous rumors about an October release date have since been disproved.

The current rumors are that the Nexus 5 will be the first smartphone with Android 4.4, otherwise known by its code name "KitKat", installed. The phone itself is being manufactured by LG but will be branded and sold as a Google Nexus device, with a 4.95 inch display, a Qualcomm 2.3GHz Snapdragon processor, 2GB of RAM and an eight megapixel rear camera. The phone is expected to be sold unlocked and without a contract by Google. The Google Play page that was taken down indicated a 16GB version would have a price of $349.
