iPhone's 'trypophobic' design disturbs people with fear of holes

Read full article: iPhone's 'trypophobic' design disturbs people with fear of holes

The Pro and Pro Max phones feature three camera lenses. And while the design is likely to appeal to photography fans, some social media users say it is triggering their trypophobia -- an intense, irrational fear of small holes and clusters of circles and bumps, such as those in a honeycomb, lotus flower or bubble bath. Research into trypophobia is limited. According to research from the University of Essex, "the phobia arises in part because the inducing stimuli share basic visual characteristics with those of dangerous organisms." Cole said his research had shown that 16% of the UK's adult population found the image of a lotus seed pod -- considered a typical trypophobic image -- "uncomfortable or repulsive to look at."

For years, Wall Street watched in awe as Apple's iPhone appeared to defy gravity.

These materials will be the same as what Apple's authorized service providers now receive, and at the same cost.

Kevork Djansezian/Getty Images(CNN) - iPhone sales continue to decline and, for the first time in years, no longer account for the majority of Apple's overall revenue. Apple said Tuesday that iPhone sales for the quarter fell to about $26 billion in the three months ending in June, a decline of nearly 12% from the same period a year earlier. Despite this decline, Apple's managed to grow its overall revenue by a slight 1% from the prior year as the company finds more traction selling digital services to customers, including Apple Pay and Apple Music. Apple's iPhone sales accounted for just 48% of its overall revenue for the quarter, highlighting the broader shift underway at the company as it works to diversity its revenue streams. After years of defying gravity, Apple's core iPhone business has now seen sales decline for three consecutive quarters.

The effort could help reduce costs related to shipping components to the United States for the last production step, the report said. The Mac Pro computer recently received its first design update in six years. The company has not yet announced the launch date of the new Mac Pro computer.

AVENTURA, Fla. – A woman wearing nothing but a bra and panties used the art of seduction to get away with an Aventura man's $9,000 watch, police said. The theft was caught on surveillance video Dec. 22 at the Hamptons West condominium. The man told police that she got out of the shower before him and went into the bedroom. When he got out, he found the woman wearing only her bra, panties and his silver and gold Rolex watch. Security later reviewed surveillance video and determined that she ran out a back door of the building.
