The Daily Mail reported that a new leaked video purported to be of Apple's upcoming flagship smartphone shows just how iPhone users would operate the device without the physical button.

According to the video, one can open the device by firmly pressing on the left side of the screen.

There are other rumors circulating online about Apple's highly anticipated smartphone.
