Google's Nexus 5 is not exactly the world's best kept secret, but if you needed further confirmation that the device is coming soon, we've got it: the device briefly appeared in Google Play Store with a price tag of $349.Interestingly, the leak comes from not any other source but Google, as the phone was accidentally listed on the Play Store, the company's content, services and device marketplace. The listing appeared for select users and was pulled by Google after it realised it's made a faux pas. The listing was quickly removed (and replaced with the listing for Nexus 4), but not before it was noticed by the folks from Android Police.
The listing even revealed the pricing of the Nexus 5's 16GB model, which was listed at $349. The listing showcases the phone in its full glory offering a nice look at the phone's rear, front and left edge. The pictured device's form factor is in line with previous leaks with the back sporting the Nexus and LG branding and the display running a version of Android that matches the leaked Android 4.4 KitKat screenshots complete with the transparent navigation key bar and new icons.
There were no details about the device except the $349 price for the 16GB model. For comparison, the Nexus 4 cost the same (with 16GB of storage memory), but it was also available with 8GB for $299. Of course, since the listing was published in error, it's quite possible that the price tag isn't real, either.
