K version of Android is Kit Kat????

[mikedt]

Lmao ok honeycombe should have been haggis, eclair should have been eejit, froyo should have been fudge, donut should have been dumpling, gingerbread should have been glasgow, cupcake should have been celtic, kitkat should be KILT! :beer::beer:

Yum dumplings.....I like dumplings.

I don't think a licensing deal was really necessary. These kinds of things always make me uneasy for some reason. At any rate, I'm glad the next named version has been announced. Hopefully it won't be a step backwards from Jelly Bean. For some reason I doubt it will be as major.

Funky for your 10,000 and whatever post.....

Google employees at the KitKat statue unveiling at #42 today.

:38 mark is attracting a lot of special interest.

Can you identify all the phones these Google employees are using?

Just a guess, but a new Nexus?

[funkylogik]

surely we'd know by now if an oem was building it? I say its a plant
Actually looks like a case

From our own front page:

Did Google just leak the Nexus 5 in their KitKat unveiling video?

One of the commentors on that article posted a cropped zoom of the phones that the two are holding. You can sort of make out the LG logo on the the unknown phone the guy is holding.

The intrgiue grows.......they pulled the video link. Which I got from Android's G+ page!

 

[funkylogik]

Gota love google lol

 

[gtbarry]

There are already a lot of screencaps. So, I don't see the point of pulling it.

 

[jhawkkw]

I'm definitely perplexed, we haven't seen anything go through the FCC that was suspicious to my knowledge.

If that is the next nexus phone, sign me up! It definitely looks larger than the nexus 4, and the camera sensor looks enormous...hopefully some more info will leak in the coming weeks

I just noticed something. Looking at what I suspect is the camera, it looks awfully similar to the Xperia Z1.

Sony Xperia Z1 demo units leaked

Not sure I'd put a lot of faith in that though.

The girl appears to be holding a Nexus 4 and the guy to her right (our left) is holding a larger device with the word Nexus that is not a Nexus 7. Perhaps with an LG logo.

(BTW, I hope no one lost their job over this video. The poster and/or the people with the phones in hand. The people I know at apple that work on their phone there, would have been fired as the video was being pulled if this happened there.)

Its really strange how the logo is in landscape..

If all photos are true, and that is a BIG if - these would lead me to think that the Nexus 5 is a Sony Xperia Z1 with a Nexus logo on the back in landscape(?).

The camera placement of the LG G2 (the most oft rumored Nexus 5 base) is significantly different. And the camera placement in the photo matches the Xperia Z1 exactly.

The lens does look huge like the new sony
