Red LG Google Nexus 5s now live on Google Play



From the last couple of weeks back we have been consistently reporting you with the rumors and leaks of so called upcoming Red LG Google Nexus 5 flagship. The puzzle was then added with some real life photographs of the packages, which seemed to be pouring in from the companys warehouse, again showing it up in blood-red colors.

Last week, courtesy of the Statesides carrier Sprints internal filing, which led us to the dates for today, 4th of February, 2014, and finally with some official press renders for the icing on the cake made our doubts clear about the unannounced Googles 2013 flagship handset in the new paint job, which was reportedly scheduled for a release to the Google Play Stores and Sprint Stores, around United States.



Accordingly, the American search giant has done exactly the same, going official by introducing the first Nexus device in Red color, alongside the Black and White options from the Play Store, moments back. The new phone will remain matching from its internal specification side sporting the chassis in bloodshot. The newly painted smartphone will cost you $349 for the 16 gigs model and $399 for the 32 gigabytes variant.

But, its not only United States, the United Kingdom based retailer, Carphone Warehouse has promised us to bring this very new Nexus 5s to the Great Britain country, as early as tomorrow at 6:00 AM in the morning, local. "The Nexus line has always been about doing things differently and consumers who share this philosophy have been our most loyal fans. We’re carrying this thinking over to the red Nexus 5, which we think will catch the eye of consumers who want to make an even bolder statement," said Dr. Jong-seok Park, President and CEO of LG Electronics Mobile Communications Company.
