Who needs a launch event when everything leaks online ahead of time?
Although Google is expected to announce Android 4.4 Kit Kat and the Nexus 5 next Tuesday, Android blog Tutto Android seems to have beaten the big G to the punch. The site posted on Friday what appear to be photos of the Nexus 5 running the latest version of Android, as well as a short rundown of some of the most prominent new features included in the update.
According to the report, Android 4.4 Kit Kat boasts a new home screen, lock screen, and app drawer—all of which seem to borrow elements from Apple's iOS 7.
The blue Holo theme that's been present since Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich has been dramatically toned down, and the blue coloring has been replaced with an off-white for the menu bar and app drawer.
