LG claims that there are no supply issues with its Nexus 4 handset, according to a company representative who spoke to Korean news outlet Chosun Ilbo. The Korean-to-English translated text mentions that the Pyeongtaek manufacturing plant has been producing the Nexus 4 "without a hitch." The source added, "There is no problem in supplying."

Launched in October, the high-profile and low-priced device has hit quite a few snags getting to consumer's doorsteps. Last month, Google's United Kingdom and Ireland Managing Director Dan Cobley apologized for the shortage on his Google+ profile, stating that that reason for the shipment delay had to do with "scarce and erratic" supply and that the communication between Google and LG had "been flawed."

Though the Nexus 4 is essentially the same phone as the LG Optimus G in a different package, the Optimus G hasn't had any known supply chain issues. Perhaps that's because the Nexus 4's biggest appeal is the fact that, in addition to a quad-core Snapdragon S4 processor and a 4.8-inch HD screen, it features the latest iteration of Google's mobile operating system, Android 4.2 Jelly Bean. Google is selling it for $299, or $349 without a contract, and the phone can be used globally.

We've reached out to LG for a statement on the shipping issues and will update if we hear back.
