Was the mirrored wall and floor an art exhibit? Or part of one?
Was the iPhone held in a certain way as to prevent its reflection in one of the mirrors?
I still stick to my first answer: One (assuming the iPhone is visible in the hand). All the others are reflections.

There is a right answer in the same sense in which 2+2=4 is right.
But last time I tried it with college math majors, we had all kinds of hypothetical answers (all wrong: infinity, 3, 4, 11(?), ...), and then we took a vote (for, "that's how all scientific truth are decided," said I, hinting specifically at the global warming problem).
You are right, other iPhones are reflections, but how many of them are there? (OK, when you give me your answer, I'll take the burden of adding the iPhone itself on myself.)
