Apple is rumored to be working on a more affordable iPhone for quite some time and even Tim Cook's denial (http://www.gsmarena.com/tim_cook_on_why_apple_wont_have_multiple_iphones_and_ios7-news-6117.php) of its existence isn't slowing down the gossip train. Today, purported images of the low cost iPhone have been spotted in China, pointing to a curvy plastic body in unison with previous reports.

The images of the low budget iPhone have been obtained from two different sources, but have a similar design. Both leaked images have a curved back, similar to what was earlier seen in the iPhone 3GS (http://www.gsmarena.com/apple_iphone_3gs-2826.php).
The Weibo user, who leaked the images claims to have got its hands on the device and the user, confirms that the new design provides a good feel in the hands.

Both images show the smartphone in a bumper case, so it's uncertain if the smartphone has a metal frame like its high-flying sibling. However, the image reveals the presence of 3.5mm audio jack, lightning port and a speaker.
