Only those with 'hawk vision' can find phone in ocean of shopping bags within 35 seconds

Puzzlers have been left scratching their heads over a tricky brainteaser, and only those with the eyes of a hawk will be able to solve it in 35 seconds or under.

The puzzle in question, which will no doubt appeal to keen shopaholics, shows an ocean of brightly coloured shopping bags, with one solitary mobile phone hidden among them.

This is by no means an easy brainteaser, and it isn't immediately obvious where the phone actually is. Puzzle lovers will need to harness all their powers of observation, scanning over each part of the picture in turn for telltale shapes.

Ready? Set your timer and cast your eyes over the following image:

Did you spot it yet? Don't worry if not, these sorts of puzzles are intended to get your brain cells whirring away, and the more you practice, the sharper your skills will be.

This brainteaser, which was shared by global e-commerce platform, Ubuy, requires both focus and patience. Remember, you're looking for a smaller shape, which won't stand out nearly as much as the brightly coloured shopping bags.

If you're ready to move on then check out the same image below, this time with the answer circled:

The outside of the phone is the exact same colour as the bag handles (Ubuy)

As you can see, the outline of the phone is the exact same colour as the white shopping bag handles, making it difficult to pick out. You'd be forgiven for thinking that it was just another handle at first glance.

If you enjoyed this observation-based puzzle, then perhaps you could try your luck with this lively, challenging woodland carnival scene brainteaser, which shows one carrot hidden amid the chaos.

Much like the brainteaser, this one will really put your vision to the test and also asks you to set a timer. Only those with the sharpest eyes will be able to spot the solitary carrot in five seconds or under.
