Trypophobia is the fear of holes or irregular clusters, and small patterns placed close together.
Apple has launched its latest iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro and iPhone 11 Pro Max featuring a new -- triple -- camera set-up. And the lens placement in the camera panel alone triggered a series of memes on Twitter.
A more serious debate ensued when several users commented that the three holes (the lenses do look like holes) somewhat led to the discomfort of trypophobic users.
For the unversed, the phones are equipped with an additional lens and all three camera lenses have been placed close to each other. Trypophobia is the fear of holes or irregular clusters, and small patterns placed close together.
Trypophobia can generate anxiety in people; though it is not officially recognised as a mental disorder.
Several trypophobic people have called iPhone 11 out.
Some call it nasty.
It surely can be a trigger.
This IS A PROBLEM.
A few less users.
We are NOT GOOD.
Needs a warning, fo sho.
