Neither Google nor LG have released the Nexus 4 figures, but that doesn’t mean some people can’t make their own estimates. In fact, an XDA-Developers forum member put some time into this task and concluded that the two companies have thus far moved 1 million Nexus 4 smartphones.
Relying on a crowd-sourced method of finding out how many Nexus 4s have been sold, this guy managed to get to this figure.
