Android 4.4 is one of Google’s most intriguing updates yet, predominantly because it brings a revamped version of Androids traditional UI, in addition to shipping with some of the most unique stock wallpapers we have ever seen. However, unless we purchase the Nexus 5, it’ll be quite a while until we can get our hands on the new OS – which would mean we didn’t get to enjoy the beauty of the freshly designed backgrounds for some time.

But thanks to a very generous Android enthusiast, we have obtained a system dump consisting of all 10 wallpapers which ship with KitKat. So, fortunately, we do not have to wait for the operating system to be ported to our devices before we can download and install the backgrounds.

The full collection of wallpapers can be seen below. If you do not wish to download the entire gallery, you can download selected wallpapers individually – simply click on each picture and wait for the attachment page to load. Then, right-click on the background and select “Save Image.”

If you wish to download all 10 wallpapers and don’t feel like saving each one manually, simply navigate to the bottom of the page and click the source link to download the whole culmination as a ZIP file through Dropbox.

Alternatively, you can head on over to our Google+ page and download the wallpapers there, where they can be installed directly onto your mobile device.
