Nexus 5 leaked

That is a fair point, however if the bezel was too small pie controls would become fiddly and the NLED is located nicely in that space on the N4.

With my nexus 4 I am on my 3rd rear glass.... So me and my wallet will be glad to see the 'back' of that.

Dropped my Nexus 4 more times that I care to remember and its slipped off various work surfaces and the front and back are both in tact luckily! *touches wood*

I also agree its an awesome phone, and if you don't need anything new then there really isn't any reasons to upgrade. And having a long update cycle on it should be really good, I expect the N4 to keep going for another 2 years.

Yeh think I've just been rationalizing my reasons not to get one really. I'll wait for the next iteration I think before I jump ship..........................unless my N4 breaks before then haha.

TAKE MY MONEY!

I just want to know when it will be available so I can make plans

Hoping we get dimension details today, anything bigger than the N4 and its pretty much a no-no for me. Its absurd how big the top end Android phones are, just seems poorly thought-out ergonomics...

Google have a press event in New York on Thursday evening, "Join us for a night out with Google Play", but it looks like there won't be anything to play with.

You're damned if you do, damned if you don't! The choice is yours.

I know the N5 was "accidentally" leaked on the Play Store but other than that, has there been any official announcement that the phone even exists yet??

I'm at the end of my contract and would like something to replace my Xperia T and at the moment none of the other "superphones" (SGS4, HTC One, Xperia Z1 etc) are interesting me!

Nope, it may just be the most elaborate troll ever.

[Update 2: No News At Event] Google Begins Sending Out Invites To October 24th Google Play Event

We've now received independent confirmation from a credible source that there will be no news, Android or otherwise, at this event. Sorry, everyone - continue your Nexus reveal date conspiracy theorizing as normal.

They wouldn't hold an event for nothing so i think we may be surprised....I bet it is the Nexus 5, Android 4.4 and more......

The play store nexus 5 hiccup kind of gives it away if you ask me.
Also, now that the chromecast app is available internationally- could we see the device rolled out in the UK...?!

Fingers crossed. I'll be grabbing a Chromecast, a Nexus 5 & the new Nexus 10! Lots of £££ for Google!
