Apple on Tuesday unveiled its new set of devices at its annual event in Cupertino, California and among the launches were the latest models of its flagship iPhone.
Branded iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro and iPhone 11 Pro Max, the new set of phones have upgraded camera features compared to the previous Apple offerings. The upgrade, however, has meant three prominent cameras at the back of iPhone 11 Pro and iPhone 11 Pro Max models. The three distinct protrusions at the back of the phones have not gone unnoticed — indeed, they are very hard to miss — and Twitter has had a field day having a laugh at Apple’s expense.
One user pointed out the similarities between the phone's camera and marks on a coconut.

While another couldn't help but equate the three holes on bowling balls with three protrusions on the Apple phones.

There were references to Terminator, last year's rage fidget spinners, as well as shavers. Yes, shavers.

Jokes and banter notwithstanding, there is nary a doubt that Apple fans will queue in front of stores the day the new iPhones hit the shelves. In India, you can do that on September 27.
