Earlier this year, a rumour said Google will be releasing multiple Nexus 5 colour options on the Play Store. That didn’t pan out exactly as speculated, as only a red Nexus 5 popped up. However, it looks like there may be a yellow Nexus 5 after all.
The official Android website mentioned a yellow colour variant for the stock Android flagship, according to Android Police , who spotted the change. However, it has been quickly amended by Google, leading to speculation that this was a premature revelation.
It must be noted that Google released a bright red version of the Nexus 5, which looked very similar to the official KitKat red used by Nestle. Does a yellow Nexus 5 hint that the next version of Android i.e. the L release has some variation of lemon in its official name? Well, it’s not the first time we have heard lemon being used for Android L . Lemondrop, Lemon pie have been fan favourites as far as the name is concerned, so perhaps Google is paying a hat-tip to the name with this slip-up.
Android L at the moment is nameless, even in the developer preview that Google released this week . Hopefully, we’ll find out the real name soon enough.
