The body has rounded edges,  and there’s a round dual-LED True Tone flash and recessed cavity for the volume buttons. As the device isn’t a mere dummy, it also gives us a sneak peek into the  icon for Passbook with a fourth horizontal stripe in addition to airplane, movie camera, and coffee cup. The new red stripe shows a credit card like that is speculated to be the NFC-based payments service within Passbook.   [caption id=“attachment_232899” align=“aligncenter” width=“640”]  Rounded edges like the HTC One M8 (Image: Weibo)[/caption]   The homescreen of the iOS 8 will now have a sixth row of icons, which wasn’t seen in the 4-inch iPhones. The horizontal layout remains same and the icons appear to be the same size on both the iPhone 6 and iPhone 5s.         Besides, Tech Gadget blog has posted four new videos of the iPhone 6 running iOS8. All the four videos confirm a fingerprint scanner and also show the health app. The videos go on to show the camera and finally a glance through the settings.  

  And with that we have a very clear look at the next-gen iPhone 6. Want a better look? We only have to wait till tomorrow night to find out the full specs and other features of the Apple iPhone 6. Feast your eyes on the above videos till then.
