The first photographic evidence of an upcoming new entry-level iPhone from Apple (AAPL) may have just been revealed. Japanese Apple blog Macotakara on Thursday published a photo of a dual-head vibration motor that has not previously been used in any iPhone model. According to “iLab factory,” the source of the image, the part will be included in Apple’s upcoming low-end iPhone. Apple is expected to unveil a new iPhone 5S later this year as well as an entry-level iPhone that the company will use to bolster its market share in emerging regions. The photo of the leaked low-end iPhone part follows below.
