Android 4.4 KitKat caught running on an upcoming Nexus 5

We heard a lot about the American multinational corporation's two new upcoming units, the company's 2013 flagship, the previously leaked Life's Good manufactured Nexus 5 and their new update to the Android platform, 4.4 KitKat.

What you see above is a leak from an Italian webpage, claiming it to be the Android 4.4 KitKat Operating System running on the yet to be announced LG Google Nexus 5. First thing we notice above is the Android 4.4 KitKat's new User Interface and the new wallpapers, few new icons and Google has integrated with this update, two new colorful wallpapers that adds new sleeker look to the Android homescreen.

Next up, the new translucent application drawer, which rearranges apps to a to new level, also seems to replace the old Gallery app to Google Photos.

From the Settings page, we get to see couple of new add-on's, the 'Tap & pay', and a new updated 'Location mode', which offers 'High accuracy' that uses Global Positioning System (GPS), WiFi and mobile networks signals to estimate the current location. A 'Battery Saving' mode that enables WiFi and mobile networks to estimate the location. Last in the list, 'Device sensors', that only uses GPS to pinpoint the location on the device.

Finally comes in the new lockscreen, where Google has added a camera icon to the right below corner, something we saw in the latest iOS 7 update for Apple. You can now swipe up the screen to access the camera from the lockscreen, where else swiping to left also exists. We expect to see both these Google creations soon this month.
