Hello, what's this? While many of us were out enjoying the spring weather, @evleaks (http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/02/motorola-phone-leak-stock-android/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Engadget) was busy posting photos of an unknown LG smartphone that, if real, represents a notable shift in the Korean company's design language. The device shares the Nexus 4 (http://www.engadget.com/2012/11/02/nexus-4-review/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Engadget)'s slightly curvy outline and lack of front-facing hardware buttons, but appears to have a taller screen, a new speaker grille and a different sensor layout. It's not very likely to be part of the Nexus program (http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/03/korea-times-lg-is-working-with-google-on-another-nexus-phone/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Engadget) with that conspicuous LG logo at the front, but there are few other clues as to where it would fit in LG's phone family -- is it an Optimus G sequel (http://www.engadget.com/2013/04/17/lg-optimus-g-sequel-q3-2013/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Engadget), an Optimus LTE2 (http://www.engadget.com/2012/05/03/lg-optimus-lte2-2gb-ram-true-hd/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Engadget) follow-up, or something entirely fresh? We may well see more of this mystery hardware in the near future, though, and there's already a close-up of the top bezel to be found after the break.
