If there’s any doubt in your mind that the Google Nexus 5 is coming, then now is about the time to expel those doubts — as it’s already made its way to the Google Play Store, albeit for a short period of time.  The Nexus 5 was listed for $349 and featured a 1080p 4.95-inch display, 2.3GHz Snapdragon 800 processor, and options for both a 16GB and 32GB version.

There also seems to be an absence of the default messaging app, with the Hangouts icon replacing where you would usually find the Messages icon.  Android 4.4 Jelly Bean will obviously be preinstalled on the Nexus 5, both of which are rumoured to be unveiled at an event on October 28.
