By now you would think people tasked with testing unannounced smartphones would keep them pocketed while unwinding at a bar. Following in the footsteps of the iPhone 4, which was famously left in a bar and then leaked to no end, Google’s next-generation Nexus 5 has been caught on film yet again after a Google employee testing the phone reportedly left it in a bar. 9to5Google posted the leaked videos, which are both extremely brief because the phone is secured by a PIN and therefore cannot be unlocked. Google’s Nexus 5 first leaked on video when Google accidentally included it in a promotional video for Android 4.4 KitKat, so it seems fitting that another Googler is responsible for this latest leak.

Rumored Nexus 5 specs include a 5-inch display, a 13-megapixel rear camera, 2GB or 3GB of RAM, a 2,700 mAh battery and of course Android 4.4 KitKat, and the phone was designed and built by LG. The new Nexus phone is expected to launch sometime in October but in the meantime, two leaked Nexus 5 videos follow below.
