Can anyone explain to me why my iPhone sees the obstruction in my tele mirror lens but my normal camera can "look around" it?

Hello Silv ,
The smaller the sensor for a given focal length the smaller the field of view, which means that the central obstruction, the mirror, will take up a greater proportion of the view and make its presence more pronounced,
especially when focused closer than at infinity, such as in your image. A diagram would make it more clear, but unfortunately I'm on an iPad now.
Best
