Google Might Have Hinted At Nexus 5 In Android 4.3 Camera App

If there’s one thing we have learnt about the upcoming Nexus 5, thanks to leaked photos, is that the lens on the back of the phone will be pretty large and obvious, but the thing is there is a small chance that Google might have been teasing us about the device for quite a while now, but it was only until the device started leaking in earnest did people start seeing the similarities. For those running Android 4.3 and have tried the recently updated camera app, you might have noticed at one of the buttons used to switch between the front and rear-cameras looks a bit like the Nexus 5, especially given the device’s alleged camera placement.

In fact this was suggested about a month back by a Reddit user, but many did not choose to believe him, instead suggesting that we were reading too much into things. However like we said, given the number of leaks we’ve seen to date, is this still a coincidence or has the Nexus 5’s design been right under our noses all along? Still no word on when Google plans on announcing the Nexus 5. The rumored 15th of October date has come and gone with no news, but hopefully Google will announce something in the coming weeks.
