A new image of the white Nexus 5 has leaked and the 5-inch smartphone is expected to be released on Nov.1 through the Google Play Store.

There have been many rumored launch dates for Google's next-generation Nexus smartphone, the Nexus 5. The last expected date was Oct. 31, but now a very reliable tipster is showing the world the Nexus 5 in white and also reporting that the smartphone will officially launch on Nov. 1.

Evleaks posted the above image on Twitter, giving the world a good look at Google's unannounced Nexus 5. The image matches previous leaks that claimed the handset will have a large 5-inch 1080p Full HD display on its front. The white Nexus 5 will have a black front and a white colored soft grip back. We also see the expected high-end 8-megapixel rear camera.

The image also confirms the Nexus 5 is running a new version of Android, Android 4.4 KitKat.  The tipster also posted a Nov. 1 release date. Google has not even announced an event yet, but this source usually provides concrete information.

The Nexus 5 is expected to feature a 5-inch 1080 x 1920 Full HD IPS display with a pixel density of 442 pixels per inch (ppi) and be the first device to launch with Android 4.4 KitKat. It is expected to be powered by a 2.3GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor and 2GB of RAM. The handset will include an 8-megapixel rear camera with optical image stabilization (OIS) and a 1.2-megapixel front-facing camera for video chat. The smartphone's wireless capabilities are expected to include a 4G LTE radio, Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0 LE, NFC, and GPS. The Nexus 5 will be offered in 16GB and 32GB internal storage variants and use a 2,300mAh battery.

We'll have to wait and see if we hear anything from Google this week on whether it is hosting some type of event on Nov. 1. As soon as we hear more details we'll keep you up to date with all things Nexus 5 and Android 4.4 KitKat.
